thanks you lol i know it will, but ive been on this forever and i need lots and lots of help

 

Those cyrillic characters spell Kopek. It should say "CCCP" which is the cyrillic equivalent of USSR (short for Union of Soviet Socialist Republics - i.e. the old Communist regime.

That's the Republic of Slovenia, a portion of the former Cezchoslovakia.

Czechoslovakian Socialist Republic, one of many names the country has had at different post-WW II historical periods.

German Federal Republic, i.e. West Germany before reuinification, just plain Germany now.

Republic of Austria

Hungary.[/QUOTE]That's about all I can add to what you already know off the top of my head. Without pictures a full response is just about impossible - for example most Israeli coins were issued in multiple years, so without a picture noone, not even our Israeli members, can date it.

With pictures, a full response to everything you are asking would probably be only a 20-40 minute project. BTW, a visit to your local public library and a little time with Krause would also be likely to answer all your questions. Krause even includes a page of characters used for dates in many countries that don't use the Roman alphabet.

 

thanks roy, how did u know all that?

 

ive tried to get pics but either they r blurred close up or they r too far away, and ive searched Pictures and such, and it gives all the threads with pics not info

 

ive think ive figured out my camera

Some information and links...

Hi Spider! (And greetings to all "forum-ites"!)

I found the Coin Talk forum a couple of months ago when I was looking around for (what else?) information on coins. I just started to get back into the hobby after many years, and I really appreciate all the information that this forum provides. So THANK YOU, everyone, for all your posts! I haven't posted anything myself up to now simply because I didn't really feel that I had much to add to the "knowledge base" (so to speak)... although I do enjoy reading some of the various threads/topics.

That's when I ran across Spider's plea for help..., and it seemed like something right up my alley.

I was only able to search a few websites, so here's what I have (for now). I'll add more as I come across any useful information.

As Roy stated in his post, the word КОПЕЕК (I don't know if you can read that or not -- it depends on whether your computer is set up for Cyrillic) means "kopeck", which is what Russian rubles are divided into: 100 kopecks per 1 ruble (just like 100 cents per 1 dollar). (And there had better be 3 "C"s on that coin, not just two -- CCCP, like Roy mentioned.)

I didn't find any info on older (Soviet) coins, but here are some details about modern-day Russian coins:

"Slovenská republika" stands for Slovak Republic (commonly called "Slovakia") -- not Slovenia, as Roy stated. Slovenia is another country, located just south of Austria and in between Italy and Hungary. Check out this map -- you'll see Slovenia in light blue and Slovakia in brown.

Now here is where things get good. I really hit the "mother lode" on this one. I went to the Slovak National Bank website... and found more information than you would ever want to know about their coinage -- with pictures and all! Check it out:

Slovak coins (by the way, the red X through some of the coins is just an indication that the coin has been "discontinued" and is no longer valid -- but the information about the coins is still there)

It's even in English. It'll tell you what the "castle by beach" or the "tower" or "mountain" is. Even whether the coin has a milled or reeded edge! Pretty cool! (I was shocked to find such a wealth of info from the Slovak bank -- way to go, Slovakia!)

The "Sk" stands for Slovenská koruna -- Slovak crown, which is their main unit of money. The crown is divided into 100 hellers -- hence the "h" on some of the coins. But I think that info is also all on the website.


#4
As Roy stated, "Československá Socialistická Republika" stands for Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, which was the official name of Czechoslovakia under Communism. The "KCS" is Koruna československá -- i.e., Czechoslovak crown. The "crown" was the unit of money for former Czechoslovakia and is now used in both present-day Czech Republic and Slovakia. The "h" on the smaller coins would, once again, stand for hellers -- the divisional unit of the crown.

Unfortunately, since Czechoslovakia no longer exists, I wasn't able to find as much information about the older coins as I did about the new coins. I don't know if it will help at all or not, but here's a link to the modern Czech coins -- I would imagine some of the details have stayed the same since 1993, when Czechoslovakia split into the Czech Republic and Slovakia:

This is a coin from Bulgaria. The word СТОТИНКИ ("stotinki") is the divisional unit of the Bulgarian ЛЕВ ("lev"). Here's a picture I found -- it should look like your coin:



Here's a whole page of pictures of Bulgarian coins, just in case:

Bulgarian coins

Once again, I was only able to find information on current coinage, but maybe it will help -- just click on the appropriate link to get a picture of the coin and all the details:

I'm not sure exactly which coin you're talking about, but check out the following website for information on shekel tokens (the "shekel" is the official monetary unit of Israel... both modern and ancient Israel):

shekel tokens


#9
All I can say about this one is that the Hungarian forint is divided into 100 fillér. "Magyar Népköztársaság" means "Hungarian People's Republic". I checked out the Hungarian National Bank's website, but they only have modern-day coins and bills (and they're all forints -- no fillér denominations -- I think these went out of circulation in the mid- or late 1990s, but I'm not sure).


#10
"Republika Hrvatska" is the "Croatian Republic" (commonly referred to as "Croatia" -- one of the countries that resulted from the split-up of Yugoslavia). The official currency is the "lipa", each of which is divided into "kuna". The best I can do is the following page from the Croatian National Bank -- it gives details and info about modern coinage, but it might be helpful nonetheless:

modern Croatian coins


Well, that's what I found. Just for reference, here's a list of the web page for the various national banks of the European Union -- I would imagine that the majority (if not all) have an English version as well:

national banks of the EU

Oh, and here's a list of (what appears to be) all major national banks around the world:

I hope that helps.

To live is to learn, and learning is life.

To start with, I read newspapers (current history), biographies and history books, magazines and some scientific stuff; I watch PBS and listen to NPR; I discuss topics of common interest with others; and I generally try to retain what I learn. I've been reading and talking all of my life, but ony started paying attention to PBS and NPR after they were invented, sometime in the mid-20th Century.

BTW, I guarantee that I'm not the only member of this forum who knew that stuff.
