Very nice addition

 

To me, all coins are beautiful, some more than others, but just saying I love them all.

 

One coin that I particularily like from the 20th century is the french "100 francs Cochet"


4° république (1946-1958) - 100 francs Cochet 1954
Ref : Le Franc 10 # 450/2

Q

 

French 50 Franc 1974-1980

 

What's the grade on yours? I'm thinking mine is undergraded by a point.

 

Yours is definately undergraded! I have a MS-64 Canada 1912 $10/ its full of bagmarks/ your coin should be at least 64.

Mine came from Rauch, its perfect/ no marks/ looks way better in hand., they graded it stempelglanz=MS64 or better. This coin/ the Austro-Hungarian AV 4 Dukaten Franz Josef/ Saint Gauden Double Eagle/ Albania 100 Frangga PROVAS/ Bulgaria AV 4 Dukaten Ferdinand I are all extremely nice designs.

Got mine at the NYINC a couple years ago.

 

I have two in my collection that I personally think are wonderfull for the image and the engraving

 

I like the US-Philippine Peso design and the Mexican Caballito.
I only own one of the two. I'm still searching for the ideal Caballito.

 

From a extinct Country/ They fought for independence in late 60s. No one (UN) came to their aid, as Nigeria starved them into submission. same happened later in Rwanda
AV 25 Pounds 1969 Valcambi Mint
95g. 60mm. .916
Republic of Biafra

 

I've always been partial to this one: Iceland 1930 10 Kronur

 

Agree I love this design

 

I have been admiring the herald/crest on the obverse of the 1937 Bulgarian coin I just sorted (a 50 Stotinki ?). The reverse wheat stalks seem to go into a bit more detail than our wheat on the reverse of our old coppers.

My example would only go VF or XF at the most. The rim & edge worn smooth (Probably toted around in some soldier's pocket during WW2).

 

My favorite design is the greek military junta 100 drachma. I really like the symbolism of the phoenix rising from the ashes helped by a soldier lol.

 

However the Hungarian 1907 5 kroner commemorating the coronation of Franz Josef gives the Greek one some competition

 

I’ve always thought this design was pretty sweet.

 

There are so many... It would be hard to choose 1 or even 10

This could be my favorite set.

 

If you like Christmas and have kids, this coin would be hard to pass up
