That jumped on suddenly! I can do 1566 with this Elizabeth I threepence - quite a nice one: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]This one caused a bit of a stir...
Ah good - I can contribute for one. Not the greatest coin but here is an Elizabeth I 1569 Sixpence to keep us moving: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I have had a bit of a day of upgrades, quite unexpectedly: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
OK - for anyone still interested, I have an almost complete ID from another forum (predecimal.com in the UK): " It is a French Jetton, very...
Yes - that style of reverse is why I thought Jeton from the start. Most of those linked to I have seen before - just not met one with the standing...
The writing is certainly earlier medieval than the usual Krauwinckel writing, now that I look at it more closely. As best I can make out:...
Bump - can nobody help me with this?
... and finally this 1933 Wreath Crown. If anyone else has tried collecting these you will know they are never cheap and this was a good upgrade...
Then this little tinker - 1835 One third of a farthing: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I've been working on some upgrades again. All picked up from a local auction house for what, I think, were good prices. First two Pennies - 1904...

Both Italy and Spain have coins of a similar size to the British Pennies and Halfpennies through most of the 19th century. I can barely give them...
Yes - sorry I was not impugning your photos at all, they were great. It doesn't help when the reference books photos are poor though.
Right - I think your "V" is the Arabic for the number 7, meaning year 7 of the issue, which is 1915. As to why the Krause pictures are not great -...
Not Egypt but Turkey. Muhammad V, 1909 to 1918AD (AH1327-36). I suspect 5 Kurush but I would need dimensions to be sure as I can't make out all...
Also a couple of upgrades to my English collection - 1684 Sixpence (wrongly labelled as a fourpence in the auction) and a 1719 Farthing with the...
Serendipity! I picked up this Hungary Denar today. Ferdinand I 1535 with Madonna and Child. I do not have any book that covers these so any info...
... and a more typical condition sixpence of the same date and mintmark: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
