Nice Faustina, Mat. I too am missing one, (even though I live only a few miles from the Limes). Maybe one day I will find one.
Thank you all for your help. I could not have hoped for a more complete (and methodical) answer. Thank you! I guess I made a slight mistake when...
Thanks, Lugia, My guess was also S-71 or 72. Let us see what some of the other guys have to say.
The austrian 2 Heller 1899 coin is listed in the Muenzen Revue coin price guide. Unfortunately it is anything but scarce (listed at 3 Euros in...
I need a little help with this cent. Let us see what the experts say. I hope the image is good enough to work with. Thanks in advance!
Very nice, Silvereagle. Those are beautiful coins from a very historic part of Europe.
I have checked some of my German catalogues and I can confirm the mintages are not given. They are probably just not known. As a type, the 16...

I collect Ancient, U.S, German and Latin American coinage. So I spread my collecting passion into many different areas. However, when it comes to...

The S-103 closed at a bit over $ 1000. Difficult to say, for me at least, whether the price is about right, too high, or an excellent deal - at...
Thanks for the tip, Marshal. It is a little too rough for me, but it is tempting as I have no R-4 1794 cents. The seller does not ship to Europe...
Here is another very useful site dealing with fake 1796 Dollars. http://www.civitasgalleries.com/counterfeits/1796silverdollar.html Some of...
Here is my S-131. When I bought it I had no idea it was an S-131. In fact, I had no idea there were such things as varities of large cents. It...
Wow, that has got to be unique! (I have to admit it took me a few seconds to recognize 'something' just wasn't right.....)
My only chain, an S-3. Not a stellar example, but did once belong to the Beebes, and sold 1986 as part of their collection.
