<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal, post: 25326954, member: 43872&quot;]This may not quite fit the original criteria because there were a number of coins issued between 1808 and 1812.&nbsp; The Kingdom of Westphalia was set up by Napoleon for his youngest brother, Jerome (Hieronymus in German) Napoleon to have a kingdom.&nbsp; It was not geographically the same as the German state of Westphalia, and could have been more accurately called Eastphalia.&nbsp; It was dissolved when Napoleon was defeated.&nbsp; Note the heavy die-clash on this one, so that CENT. shows clearly on the obverse.&nbsp; There is also on the obverse a distinct, although distorted, of what appears to be the privy mark from the reverse, but I can&#039;t figure how it could have got there.&nbsp; It is not incus, so not a die clash.&nbsp; (A footnote:&nbsp; Jerome&#039;s American grandson served under Theodore Roosevelt as Attorney General and founded what would become the FBI) </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1619132[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1619133[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
