    I think the theme is still just a sword anywhere on the coin. Here is a 1950 Mexico 25 centavos. 1950 MX 25 c obv.JPG 1950 MX 25 c rev.JPG

    Let's wrap up swords and go with multiple-headed eagles (or critters) a while.

    This coin is one that needs re-photographed this year.

    German States - Frankfurt 1848 2 Gulden

    It's the only coin I have with an eagle on both sides.

    GerFra184804.JPG
    GerFra184803.JPG

    Obverse: Crowned eagle
    Reverse: Double eagle with wings open

    Subject: Constitutional Convention, May 18, 1848

    Composition: Silver
    Fineness: 0.9000
    Weight: 21.2110g
    ASW: 0.6137oz

    Coins were struck in anticipation of the Constitutional Convention scheduled to take place May 1, 1848; When the convention was delayed until May 18, 1848 the coins were recalled and the dies were altered to reflect this new date.
