My Mood:  | Question about some Francs
I don't expect these to be worth much. I got them in trade simply as interesting pieces. Are they worth anything other than the historical value? I can't give better photos, sorry. Quote: I just got these in the mail. Traded 3 red seal two-dollar bills for the lot:
"66 centavos of Japanese occupation of the Philippines"
"from the top left, first all the coins...
1st row: France 1 Franc 1940, France 1 Franc 1960
2nd row: German occupied (Vichy) France 1 Franc 1942 (rev same as 1st coin 3rd row), Free France 1 Franc 1944 (other side same as 3rd coin, 3rd row)
3rd row:Vichy 2 France 1943, Vichy 2 Franc 1944, Free France 1947, Free France 1949
all coins on lower 2 rows are aluminum
the East German Medal has a pin behind the upper section so it can be worn. It's kind of dark, but the upper front has the black, red, and gold of the flag of the DDR. The front around the hammer, wheat, & compass says something about the socialist collective and work, "der kollektiv sozialistischen arbeit"
on the back it says, "sozialistisch arbeiten lernen und leben"
socialistically to work learn and live." |
