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.
This Ortug was minted in Stockholm. Many varieties involving the Ortug's and Half Ortug's from this year.

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. Hungary 1995BP 10 Forint F.A.O. Pattern EME40 Copper-Nickel Hungary 1995BP 10 Forint F.A.O. Pattern EME40 Proof Copper-Nickel Hungary 1995BP 100 Forint F.A.O. Pattern EME41 Nickel-Brass
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.
