I've looked on the net but must say not much out there when it comes to Denmark coins. If there is a site that some one knows of that can aid me in these variations on foreign coins I'd so appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

I've looked on the net but must say not much out there when it comes to Denmark coins. Hmm, I don't see that "G" variety listed in the Krause. Would not make much sense anyway - those are the mintmaster's (HCN = Hans Christian Nielsen) and the artist's (GJ = Gunnar Jensen) initials ...

I've seen a lot of type o's in Krause the wrong page number listed for countries, a low grade of a coin listing for more money than the next grade up.   10-12-2009, 01:02 PM   #4 (permalink) chrisild Coin Collector     Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: NW · DE · EU Posts: 2,077 Sorry, my mistake - I found the entry you mentioned, and yes, the catalog does list that "G" type. Have not seen that elsewhere ... And yes, there is quite a bit of information about Danish coins out there. But some of it is (surprise ) in Danish, such as this site: http://www.gladsaxegymnasium.dk/2/c10sieg.htm (Christian X coins) The Royal Mint's web site has both a Danish and an English version: http://www.kgl-moent.dk/DKM/UK/Coins...X!OpenDocument (Christian X coinage, English) Christian   10-20-2009, 02:44 PM   #5 (permalink) asciibaron /dev/work/null     Join Date: Apr 2007 Posts: 736 what does "rare" really mean? if this coin was in MS65, i would say it's rare. if it's in VF, it's a common coin of a low mintage. the "G" only would be the result of a filled die or some other mint error since Gunnar Jensen was the artist. -steve   Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Tags 10 ore, 1925, denmark Would you like to support CoinTalk?
