While there are plenty of 5 fun of its type, 1 fun coins are just absurdly scarce, even more rare in UNC condition. 1 fun: And it's 5 fun counterpart Note there is some alloy differences, the 5 fun coin is made of almost pure copper, 98% copper, 1& tin, 1% tin whereas the 1 fun coin's composition is 95% copper, 5% aluminum. Anyone else has a nice example of a 1 fun type out there? __________________ My partial list of coins: Omnicoin My numismatics articles and collection: http://www.gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm Regularly updated at least once a month.   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk?
