[FONT=Palatino Linotype, Book Antiqua, Palatino, serif]ANGUILLA $20 coin i bought recently from CoinVault.

[/FONT]

 

On both pieces you can find the text PROVA, so these will be patterns. Whether the SMOM officially issued those, I don't know. The Schön catalog lists coins with basically the same designs as #23 (2 tari) and #24 (3 scudi) ...

Thank you for the great link! It describes that there are 6 pages that were sold for this FAO book. My book only has the first two pages in it but it has room for six.

Now I have the KM numbers for the two Order of Malta coins. However, I do not know their catalog value. They are (1968 3 Scudi KM M38) and (1968 2 Tari KM M23). If anyone knows a current catalog value and total mintage please let me know.

 

Hello Christian,
If you have the Schön catalog does it list a value in proof?

 

i have some coins coming in the next two weeks, russia, italy, poland, chechoslovakia, USSR ,isreal, Hungary, Belgium, Ceylon, iceland, Kazakhstan, Ethiopia

 

I found them in usual sources section in numismaster site
1968 2 Tari X#23 Mintage 20k $15
1968 3 Scudi X#26 (prev KM#M26) 20k $22.50

 

Picked this up raw at the NYINC show. Just mind blowing condition for this type coin. These heavily circulated and to find one in this condition, fully prooflike, on a well rounded and not cracked planchet it amazing. Very likely the finest Venetian 1/2 Scudo in existence.

That's an amazing German medal. According to Google translator the obverse: The British Terror and the reverse something like: Lord Curzon at the German hater

Wow the female warrior medal is another winner.

Picked up a few more Nederland coins



1 Gulden 1955 and 1957





1 Gulden 1958 and 1965

 

Very dramatic medal! I like it. From the signature A. Morlon (Pierre-Alexandre Morlon) French medailleur 1878-1951. Designed French coins in the 30s, but this piece is really elegant!

 

Wow, that's an incredible coin! Congratulations on a superb find.

Best Regards,

George

 

Haven't posted a new one in a while so here goes! This is my newest. 1932 Sweden 2 Kronor. I like it!

 

1918-S Sovereign MS64 PCGS

Another Sovereign for the collection. This is a 1918-S (Sydney Mint) Australian sovereign, graded MS64 PCGS. Color is a lot nicer and richer in hand than in the photo. Reverse is rotated about 30 degrees from medal turn as shown. Enjoy!!

Best Regards,

George
