New Ships

These ships made there way across the Atlantic and into my collection of coins with ships on them. It is a subject I enjoy and has given me exposure to coins around the globe! There are a couple that are really nice designs - hope you like looking at them as much as I do!

THANKS!!!

Darryl

Definitely nice Darryl.

Here are a few ship coins that were released back during the Soviet Union era: (all of them are commemorative coins though)







Singapore released a nice set of banknotes a while ago







I'm sure there are a lot more ship related numismatics materials

 

I LOVE that third coin - tall sailing ships are really beautiful!!! They are all great - thanks for sharing! Darryl

 

Have to agree I like tall ships as well :kewl:

 

Thanks!!!

In 2004-2006 Austria had a series of "theme" collector coins, Austria and the High Seas. (In the times of the Austrian Empire, the country did have sea ports.) Click on the links to get a larger image.

Thanks, Darryl!

No wonder I couldn't decipher the words from the avatar!
Most of my ship-oriented coins are Canadian: the 1949 Matthew, 1979 Griffon, 1987 Davis Strait, 1999 Charlotte Isl., and 2004 French Settlement. You have acquired a very nice fleet: many thanks to the Admiral of Numismatica.

This is my first attempt at uploading images. I am enjoying this thread and would like to see where it will go. These are all available on eBay today, but I am not the seller. My printer is out of commision so I cannot scan my own examples.

 

Here are a few others:

This coin is a counterfeit

Those are some great ship coins, Darryl, I've always liked the Greek ones. Here is one on a Hard Times Token (Low 58, HT16) that I just picked up a few days ago.

 

Nice coins everyone. You know that you can't hoard them all

Here is one that I picked from circulation some time ago:
