    Nice coin! I've never owned one of those; they seem pretty interesting, though. Great pick up! :thumb:

    I'm getting more interested in these coins after seeing siggi's, he has an incredible collection.

    Nice example calum, great detail on the obverse. I like how coins from Norway have the crossed hammers inbetween the date on some issues.... I just recently found a very nice Norway 1914 silver 10 ore in about EF in the 25 cent bin at the coin shop..... someone missed that one, one of my best 25 cent bin finds! It has some dark toning, but it's a fairly rare coin, I have yet to take photos though. I will post some when I do.

    Nice coin Mark, but it's not Irish. What's with that? :D

    It sure is calum, I see we have another baron of the 25c/20p bin here :)
    I have pulled alot of cool silver coins and others, including a Danish 1883 1 ore that is in EF from the bowels of the large 25c/5x for $1.USD bin at my favorite coin shop, coins that were certainly not meant to have been left in there, the Norway 1914 10 ore just happens to be one of the more rare ones.

    you bet. some of my best finds have been from the 20p box. one of my fave (although not the rarest) finds was a 1736 russian denga
