Another batch includes a Conder & some older world copper material

Here is another small batch from the old time collection. I grabbed-up some interesting copper this time. These coins seem to be in nice condition for their age.



Thanks for letting me share. I will post individual pictures & descriptions.

Insurrection Coin! Austrian Netherlands or the United States of Belgium

My personal favorite in this batch is the Liard coin from Belgium. This coin is in very nice condition & is dated during the insurrection (1790). The insurrection is when the lower Netherlands revolted against the Holy Roman Empire ruled by Joseph II. They rioted & defeated the local garrisons & formed their United States of Belgium. This “insurrection or “United States of Belgium” formed in January 1790 & only lasted less than a year.


I learned a lot from this little coin. Let me know if you have anything to add about this one.

The Italy 10 Centesimi coin is dated 1867 with H mintmark. My friend said “anything that old with 30% red belongs in your collection”. Yep, I bought it.

 

Nice Conders, here are a couple of Condors. Traci :hatch:

 

This 1855 Netherlands 5-cent piece is a little coin. It is really thin (like a US three cent silver).

 

That is a really cool bunch of coins. I agree, that my favorite is the one you posted first. The "Liard from Belgium" Very cool.

 

Hello Ripley,

My new Conder is from 1794. (I think it is a Conder). I like the obverse castle & motto “For Change Not Fraud - Bridgewater Halfpenny”.

On the reverse, it says “I Holloway and Son - Drapers Post Office” and there is marking on the edge.

 

I understand Collect, they are very nice... I like to collect old Jetons, so i know where you are coming from. i was just being a wee bit cheeky. Traci

 

This puppy is old.

The design and size is what drew me to this 1807 Austrian 30 Kreuzer. It is like the diameter of a US dollar and has a great design on both the obverse & reverse. The coin seems to have some damage on the rim(s) but I suspect that is pretty common on such a large soft copper piece. It certainly is nice & original looking. I believe that the large S mintmark means that it was minted in Smolnik Hungary.

Very nice. Do you pick all of these from junkboxes on the cheap?

 

Your Insurrection Liard is in excellent condition, a strong XF at the very least. I found one years ago that NGC graded MS-64BN, and the reverse of yours with the angel head mint mark is almost as nice.

These are becoming harder and harder to find.

 

Hello Ardatirion,

I suspect that several of these coins have spent their time in the proverbial dealer’s junk box. I suspect that my friend the old-time collector found some of these coins as dealer’s 50%-off specials. I have been buying them from this one old time collection. My friend allows me to buy what I like from his collection. Eventually, I hope that he will allow me to catalog his entire collection and offer it for sale. In the mean time, I will be very content to keep going through his coins and buy what I like.

If you do a quick search at CT for the word “batch” as in “Another batch from old-time collection” you will find several posts from me that are from this same old time collection. Here are photos depicting three of the previous “batch”s of coins.

1842 over 0

This is the last coin in the batch. It is an 1842 one quart from Gibraltar. The date looks like 2 over 0 & I thought that this might be special. However, the Krause catalog lists the 2 over 0 as the normal business strike with 97,000 coins made. There is no 1840 and there is no 1842 listed in Krause. Only the 1842 over 0 is listed. It is still a neat old coin.
