This arrived last week and is one of the British Monarchs series and this one is Charles II . I don't have that many modern coins but I like these as they show the portraits of some of obverses of my coins in a condition I could never afford and possibly don't exist. They are supplied in decent wooden boxes , cardboard illustrated slips and supplied with a booklet overview of the Monarch featured on the coin. They are available in 1 oz, 2 oz and 5 oz .99 pure silver.

Nice Mecklenburg-Schwerin. At this point, these small denominations were very low purity silver, billon. They often tend to get this look and the accompanying green encrustations. These are nice small coins too. There are some earlier billon 3 pfennigs that are even smaller from this state.
