One of my "better" British coins....

AV Sovereign 1830 London Mint
William IV 1830-37

 

Here is a Haiti 100 Centimes from the Haiti year 27 (1830).

 

AV 40 Francs 1830-A Paris Mint
Charles X 1824-30
MS-65

 

Well, if year 27 is (1830) I guess year 28 is:
Haiti 1931



Hhm! Panzerman got in the way! Shouldn't you be sleeping? I though you got up early.

Still France, 1830 I guess.

 

France 1859

 

Gorgeous coin. That must have cost you a couple of hours in overtime....

 

5 francs, France, 1945. Compared to its large diameter and size, this coin is very light, you can hardly feel any weight in your grasp. Being made of aluminium. There are 5 variants; with a letter B, C and without a letter, aluminium and alum/bronze variants. It is easy to guess why it was made of aluminium. This one is an alum without letter variant.
So, 1945 or back to France

 

1945 or 1946 or Saudi Arabia (Saudi gold struck in Philli)

 

1 qersh (qurush) Kingdom of Saudia Arabia KSA, year 1378 hijri (1958), king Saud ben Abdel Aziz Al Saud.
So 1958 or saudia arabia))

 

How about a 2-for-1?

Saudi Arabia (Hejaz and Nejd) AH1343 (1924) 1/4 and 1/2 ghirsh. Stuck over Hezaj AH1334 1/4 and 1/2 piastre

 

King Fahd KSA 1408 (1988) 50 Halala (half saudi riyal)

 

Very nice!

I looked this one up. Why is it labeled as Saudi? If I understand it correctly these "Disks" were minted in by the US in Philly to pay for oil purchased from a Saudi Arabian oil company.

IMO these should be labeled as a US Trade token or something similar.

 

Yes, I get up at 6:00 AM./ go to bed around 11:00PM....so still have a little time for coins, either very early like now, or around bedtime like sunday nite

 

Greece 1988

The 1988 Greek coin (depicted on the left) includes a good-sized die chip at the top of the ships mast. The normal coin (depicted on the right) is for comparison.

 

Greece 1981, AU 2500 Drachmai PF

 

Greece 1910

 

staying in Greece still is easier for me than looking for something 1910

 

no more Greek or 1992?
