Phoenix legendary bird. Greece - 1930

 

Here is my Austria 1964 50 Schilling that just got back from PCGS today:

 

Here are my favorite two toners from my Hungarian type set:

 

Old, bad pic but I really like this one.

 

That's awesome. I haven't looked it up but I'm sure that is quite valuable.

 

Mintage of 13,000 and pretty so it's pretty valuable but the series keeps getting more and more costly as you go up in denomination. There's a silver dollar size 5 mark and gold 10 & 20 mark that are really up there. The 10 mark had a mintage of 2,000 and 20 mark had a mintage of 1,500.
We all know how accurate Krause is but the 20 mark is listed at $10,000 in XF.

 

yup just looked it up too.
German New Guinea KM#6 1894A 2 mark, mintage-13,000 , .900 silver
grade/value
F-$125.00 VF-$250.00 XF-$465.00 UNC.-$950.00
Krause values may differ than real life values.
what do you think you coins grade is ? XF-AU ?
what do you think the real market value is ?
I think it is a very nice coin.

 

Hard to know where to start but this is on the list.

 

I think mine is VF30ish. I've always thought $400-500 but I don't really know. I just checked on eBay and there weren't any similar sold or listed right now. Many more 5 marks available for some reason.

 

One of my favs, a 1 year type 4 Centesimos from Uruguay, minted in Paris,
20g, 35mm

 

Off to eBay I go... thanks a lot...

 

Picked up a cheap one too just because of the post, lol.

 

You can say that again! My 6th edition Standard Catalog lists it running from $125 for a fine to $1450 for BU.

 

I like this one, even if its not old.

 

... and I fell in love with Marianne on the 20 Franc piece

 

and even if it is a restrike, the Franz-Josef 4 Dukat piece certainly has eye appeal

 

I also like old thalers (alas I can't afford many). Here's Archduke Ferdinand in 1595.

 

I want 1 of these.
