I have several of these myself but this one is extremely thin, thinner than a US cent. It is in pretty nice shape so I would say it is not from wear. I was jsut wondering if this was normal. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Consider posting this in the foreign section, you'll get better responses. __________________ The Other Frank "Buy The Book Before The Coin!" http://www.whitmanbooks.com/Default....wUpcoming_1208   12-11-2007, 02:22 PM   #3 (permalink) Conder101 Numismatist   Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 4,448 Nifty piece, Warwickshire 220 (plain edge) or 220a (milled edge). Both are common. This piece was issued by Lutyche and the reverse is the die used on his personal token (War 219). The War 220 was apparently issued as a general circulation coin and no as an advertising piece or collector piece. The 220 seems to always come very thin. I double checked my piece and it is also very thin. You are also right that most of the loss of detail is from the thinness of the planchet and not from wear. __________________ Slab collector and researcher reported as of 12/29/06 132 companies 332 production varieties   12-11-2007, 04:54 PM   #4 (permalink) fastfun1111 Senior Member     Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 341 Thanks for the help   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
