Great, coin_nut! Sounds viable to me. Then my apologies for even bringing it up.

From Mali to what I have cataloged as Guinea. A 1985 five-franc piece (KM 53).

 

No apology needed. At least you are awake and aware, in addition to being a prolific poster of neat coin pix! We are all here to have fun and perhaps learn something now and then.

 

The Gambia - 8 Shillings, 1970

 

1961 Netherlands Antilles 1 Cent
1,000,000 Minted for this year

This is actually one of my favorite coins, the reeded edge on a cent was always interesting to me.

 

GB Charles I shilling Sharp E5/2 mm. Tun, struck 1636-1638.

 

2016 Republic of Ireland 2 Euro

 

Canada 1903 H AR 5 cents. Looks like someone took a wire brush to it.

 

GB 1701 halfpenny with the GV struck over a B in the obverse legend. Presumably the engraver started the reverse legend and corrected the error. Fairly dire, but the best of the three examples I have found in the past 15 years.

 

Netherlands 1745 Holland AR 2 stuiver

 

1938A Nazi Germany 10 Reichspfennig
70,000,000+ Minted for this year

 

GB 1696 shilling struck at Chester. The obverse die has the C cut over an E which means the London made pre-prepared die for Exeter was changed to a C and sent to Chester to cover a shortage. The reverse die also has no stops which is only recorded at Chester in 1697.

 

1938 Norway 5 ore

 

Denmark.

 

Britain. 1820 Maundy Set.

 

Netherlands 1745 Zeeland AR 2 stuiver

 

1763 Germany, Saxony full thaler

 

GB. The William & Mary equivalent to the 1701 halfpenny error higher up this page. This time a 1694 halfpenny with GV over B in the obverse legend. It appears that forgetting which side of the coin you were working on was a common problem.

 

1968 Portugal 1 escudo
