Thank you @Numismat. For what it's worth... weight 6.22g, size ~25mm. To the right of the rampant lion, I think I can see the roundness of the...
Size does matter I guess... If your 4 maravedis is the size of a nickle and this is the size of a quarter, I'm extrapolating that the entire...
@Numismat & @lordmarcovan thank you for responding! Following your tutelage, I looked further. Cobs with a shield around both the rampant lion...
For your consideration: A fine example of a, um, well, uh, I'm not certain. Outside of my knowledge, but discovered in the miscellany I've been...
Excellent!
I agree with you on the older stuff rather than the moderns. Occasionally an exception pops up. If you happened across one of the 1990...
Most people don't dig into the history that much. Here or there perhaps. That's okay -- it's their thing and their enjoyment. It is nice to...
Just my personal thing, but I tend to follow the Krause divisions for the most part. (With some exceptions as I become aware of them -- such as...
For what it's worth... I consider each government change that produced a different coinage to be a different animal, and thus I try for an example...
Fantasy Euro Patterns from "Unusual World Coins" by Krause. Many (but not all) produced 2002-2005. Some produced by INA. We're looking for an...
I've decided to put it in a flip with the note: "1813 Denmark 6 skilling token with Klingon countermark." If nothing else, it will confuse the...

[This is outside of any small expertise that I might have...] I present for your consideration an 1813 Denmark 6 Skilling coin. Token coinage....
Why, thank you. I have seen a fair amount of dryer coins, but never one with so consistent a rim. Any casual thoughts as to why it is 85% copper...
I have seen many modified coins through the years, but this one is a little weird to me. Is it just the result of someone who was bored, or is it...
I know I'm a tad late here, but I just found this thread. Let's see... England, Coins, and Metal Detecting..? Count me in. And geeeeez, take me...
Hi, We are looking for a 1, 2, 5, 10, or 20 Forint coin from Hungary in 1990. "Transitional Coinage." Krause numbers KM# 736, 737, 738, 739, or...
Thank you Christian!
That would be fortuitous and quite kind of you. I'm guessing that many here understand the niggling annoyance of not being able to fully identify...
Well, if anyone is on friendly speaking terms with Mr. Ken Bressett, please ask him about the token for me. :)
