    1474 - 111 - 72 - Groningen copy.jpg
    This Stuiver was struck in Gronigen. Todd did an excellent
    job capturing the "die bounce effect" on the obverse. When
    I ask Todd to image my coins he does with the "dated" side
    being pictured first. I collect early dated coins, so the dated
    side is presented first.

    1479 - 11 - 44 Liege copy.jpg
    A Patard struck in Hasselt. A little rough but will do nicely
    until a better one comes along.

    Here are a trio of new Hungarian patterns I picked up.

    These types were proposed as part of the Food and Agriculture Organization (F.A.O.) international coin program, and were intended to be the first circulating commemoratives produced after Hungary regained its independence from the Soviets in 1989.

    50 specimens were struck of each pattern with both a business strike and a proof finish, however, these coins were ultimately not produced either for circulation or for inclusion in the 1995 proof sets.

    It is from Morrocco as my maternal grandmother travelled a lot in the 60s, 70s, and 80s and that is one of the places she went. I just re-discovered a small lot of coins I received from her; so I consider them new acquisituons in a way. Huge sentimental value.
