the coin talk world tour

well i had an idea for a new game on here, dont know if it has been done befor but what the heck we should try any way. for each letter of the alphabet post a coin from the country beggining with that letter. obviously in alpahbetical order. and hopefully we can get all the way through. i will do A and B and then every one else can take over. all the best peeps. hope fully we can all a little something along the way too

heres A for Australia

really? no takers at all? i thought this would be a cool game

 

Not sure where I put all my foriegn coins

 

Aw, heck, I'll take the low-hanging fruit:



(Sorry I missed this the first time around. I don't have much foreign coinage, even less for which I know the country of origin, and my most interesting pieces all come from countries starting with I... )

 

Beat me to it, I'll look for a D

 

Where's Siggi? Oh dear, Denmark don't own Iceland anymore.....

 

Not my coin....

 

Had a coin from Estonia here, but I guess "England" qualifies too.

 

Okay, who's got France? (I don't have time to shoot anything this morning.)

Also, are we being English-centric, in which case Deutschland would fall under G instead of D?

 

Finland. But Saarinen's "Gateway Arch" is elsewhere.

And here is Germany ...

This isn't my coin, found it on Google images. This one is Hungary.

 

I'll go Iraq, since I've got the photos on hand (the Italian stuff's at home):

 

Japan

 

I think the next time we roll over to "A" again, we should limit pictures to those in our own personal collection. Otherwise you could click on the Krause Catalog and just follow along.

 

kiribati cent.................

 

If only I were home to dig out one of the cheap Liberian "commemoratives"...

 

Not a commemorative, but
