Great variety! XF45 is a bit of a head scratcher from here, but I still like it.
I think I'm seeing image resizing artifacts (looks like a grid) that make it tricky to read fine details in the surface. Nevertheless, it looks...
I'll give it a sticker. [IMG]
Different lighting will mess with perception of mint mark position. Also, on a LDS coin, die wear will cause the design elements to spread out a...
I have samples of all but the EDS VAM 4. I will try to remember to bring my EDS and LDS VAMs 3 and 5 with me to a show you're at (ANA? FUN?)....

Bought this one for my Prime Number Set recently. [IMG]
One of those dates is on my want list for Zeeland. Yours is a great looking specimen.
The Notre Dame colonial coinage page on these also mentions Nijmegen making them in 1692. Are these known to exist?
I'm going to start with mint, then maybe design type. We'll see where it takes me after I get a nice Overijssel, West Friesland, Friesland, and...
