<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Snifflerooh, post: 1157810, member: 30486&quot;]Hi all.</p><p>I&#039;m hoping someone can help me with this coin, given to me some 40-odd years ago by my Grandfather in Germany. It&#039;s a gold coin, 10-Mark denomination 1887, with either an &quot;M&quot; or a &quot;W&quot; or an odd-looking &quot;A&quot; mark under the bust. I&#039;m not sure of the mark, so I&#039;ve included a colour negative of the head part of the coin for help with contrast. I can find loads of Willhelm&#039;s at 20-Mark denominatons, but no 10-Mark Friedrich ones.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I know that Friedrich died in March of 1888, but I&#039;m confused as to why there would be such a coin for 1887 struck for him as, as far as I know, he was not crowned until 1888. In fact, I cannot find ANY 1887 coins for Friedrich such as this one.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
