Two weekend ago i had the opportunity to sort through 5000+ German coins. Sort I did, literally. All coins from 1947 and older to about 1870 or so. In order by denomination,date and mint. And this one really appealed to me. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces24953.html
These all came yesterday. I have some work to do now...a lot of them are crowns and there are many of silver.
Nice example! I like to just pretend the 1943 Florin and Half Crown don't exist so I don't have to worry about picking them up for my collection. They end at 1942
That sounds like a good strategy, especially for the florin. I'm digging the looks of your 42, though.
Love the George IIII Farthing, now I had to get one cause I love the reverse and it will be here soon. Cointalk hurts my wallet too much.
Nice one to have. I owned one in the early 2000s and have kind of been on the lookout for another ever since. I had the whole Irish predecimal series from 1928 up, including the '43 halfcrown but not the '43 florin. That latter (the king of Irish rarities) was the only piece I lacked. My '43 halfcrown looked similar to yours, though with a bit more toning. It was in an old PCI photocertificate slab from the early '90s, graded F15 as I recall.
Very nice examples of those stivers! I have same same, but of lesser quality, perhaps. Now you need the half stiver, A?
