    Swiss Brass 5 Rappen.

    Bone,isn't the 1919B Swiss 5 Rappen just as scarce? I have
    seen a few 1918B's in my time,but not the 1919B though.
    What do you think?

    :hammer: :secret: :whistle:

    I'd say they're VERY scarce. They weren't minted from 1919-1931. 22 years with no new 5 Rappens.

    What about the Brass 10 Rappen? How scarce are they? I haven't seen many of them, apart from the modern ones from the 1980's.

    The brass 1919B Ten Rappen is the hard one to locate. The price in the Krause shows $50 (US) for it. Only 3,000,000 were minted. They must have been melted or sent to germany to be then melted for use in weaponrey :D

    Well Sir, I'd go with a VF-20 if there is such a thing. Sorry, I was never good with the correlation of letters (G, F, VF, XF, etc.) and numbers (4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 20, etc.) I might call something VF-45 or XF-30, LOL :)
