South Africa did issue farthings, even after the UK stopped. Interestingly, theirs also featured birds: [ATTACH]
Nope. The 1989 1 Franc was minted in medal alignment, and the 1974 2 Francs was minted in coin alignment. Both are as they should be.
Coins from 1981 and before are coin alignment, coins from 1982 and after are medal alignment. This is true for all Swiss coins from 1/2Fr and up.
Whoops, I missed that in the OP, interesting. Looking at examples of the sets, they look like normal circulation-quality strikes to me, so I'm...

Got two US coins in the mail today. First, this 3c nickel. Nothing to write home about, but it's a nice, wholesome piece: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] But...
I've been doing some research in recent weeks on modern coins. Krause seems to list a lot of coins as circulating that either were only released...
That is a large date.
It is 1969. Iran has used both solar and lunar Hejira on coins at different points in time, which is probably why your converter gave both. I...
Go to a dealer (if possible) and dig through their cheap foreign bin. Grab whatever seems interesting to you. Go home, research them, and go from...

The date on these goes YDDMMY. Yours is July 13, 1999.
