Check out this little book I picked up at a local auction awhile back. I thought @medoraman would find it particularly interesting.
the 1947 piastre is neat... the one I have lacks the 'security edge' as seen here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/French-Indo...3009307?pt=US_World_Coins&hash=item3a82d39c1b which is noted here: http://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/...iastre-km-321-1946-1947-cuid-19673-duid-61907 for KM#32.1 The edge on my coin consists of normal reeding: So, since the edge has no security feature that eliminates KM#32.1. How can I tell which of the three remaining possibilities mine is? http://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/world/ KM# 32.2?? KM# E44?? KM# PE8??
That little coin album you found. It is practically identical to one I bought in Phuoc Vinh (north of Saigon) in 1966. Some of the coins in these can be rare. It is really nice to find one intact I believe yours is from the 1970's. I did notice that it consisted mainly of more modern issues. GSDykes
