Coins with fractional and mixed number denominations

Damn. Bet you could of got a big bag or candy for that one. I remember getting a hand full of candy when you returned a 2cent coke bottle. Spend 20 minutes with your girlfriend spending that 2 cents

You should sell posters of that coin. I think that’s what a nice old coin should look like. Thanks. Made my day

 

"Unsold" lot from last Aureo & Calico Auction...
AV 1/2 Escudo 1818 Lisboa Mint
Joao VI 1816-26
Portugal
Mintage 270!

 

Nova Scotia, half cent, 1864
Took me a while to find one of these. The whole cents are easier to find.
Still need a New Brunswick half cent...


Some whole cents and tokens for comparison:

 

Just in from Naumann Auction...
EL 1/24 Stater
Ionia/ Uncertain City State
Unknown Mint
Struck 670-50BC
Obv: Unknown Pattern

Nice, yet very uncertain/unknown item. No doubts about it's authenticity?

 

Peru, 1/2 Dinero, 1901 ($3.00)

 

I've already posted a Sweden 2/3 Skilling Banco, but I recently got another one.
Posted with some others for size comparison.

From L to R by row:
1/3 Skilling Banco 1842
2/3 Skilling Banco 1849
1 Skilling Banco 1820
4 Skilling Banco 1849

I don't remember where I put my 1/6 skilling, but I have one kicking around.

 

1923 J Hamburg 1/2 Million Mark Notgeld

 

A couple of fractional denominations from Central Europe:
Austria, 1/2 Kreuzer, 1816 B, Franz I


Brunswick-Lüneburg-Calenberg-Hannover, 1/12 Thaler, 1765 C, George III

 

Germany NUREMBERG 1/9 Taler 1623 (9 on shield on breast of double eagle on reverse)

 

1866 Peru 1/5 sol. This nice silver coin came in a bag of 100 mixed world coins. Score.

 

Papal States, Ferrara, 1/2 Baiocco, Benedict XIV year 11, 1751
It's struck a bit off-center. But actually I like the poor quality control of copper coins from the 1600s and 1700s. It gives them character...
Ob: "BENEDIC.XIV.P.M.A.XI"
Rev: "MEZZO BAIOCCO FERRARA"

 

Austria, 1851 A, 1/4 Kreuzer
This one is really not in bad shape for a $2 coin, in spite of a few scratches.

 

Thank you

 

Germany BRANDENBURG Johann Georg 1/21 Goldgulden (Groschen or 16 Pfennige) 1573

Johann Georg raised the number of Pfennige in a Groschen from 12 to 16. As a result: 1 Goldgulden = 21 Groschen = 336 Pfennige. 1 Reichstaler = 68 Kreuzer = 24 Groschen = 384 Pfennige.

 

South Africa 2 1/2 Shilling 1937, 1940
