    ^ Nice additions, Paddy.

    I rarely add greeks of any kind to my collection, here is one small one that didn't cost very much.

    Picked this up the other day.

    Austria AR 6 Kreuzer 1849B (Hungary)
    KM-2200

    This is the first Hungarian issue attributable to Franz Joseph I.

    This type is easily found in gem grades with the A (Vienna) mint mark, however, the B (Körmöcbánya) mint coins only made up 1% of the total mintage for this issue and are very difficult to find in any condition.

    Though all are dated 1849, this type was actually struck over a period of several years.

    I like your Gold Ram. I was recently given some Singapore coins, none were gold or silver, lol. Question - If your coin is 24K, how could it have a high nickel content? Also, per your user name, do you play a stringed instrument? I am a rank beginner on the banjo which I enjoy picking everyday.
