You are right. Once again, I jumped the gun, too anxious. Please feel free to post your 1438 or 1439 coins.

 

I have been trying to get the Koln Goldgulden too. These are for some strange reason rare in MS quality. You would think some noble back then kept a few for his collection. I would have...

Okay! Since we have some 1436s, I'll add mine.

Very rough condition. I have it identified as a 1436 and catalogued as EH# 450k. Thank you, Numista - https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces34648.html . . .

@DEA nice coin. In the Huszar reference as #578. My next coin
won't be until we get to 1429. After that 1425. I hope everybody
spent time with family and friends at Thanksgiving, for those
who celebrate.

 

Wow! Beauty. Place it on the most beautiful coin thread.

 

But it is consistent with the legend being in Latin

 

Gentlemen, for some reason they stopped notifying me of additions to this thread about 6 weeks ago and I assumed we had got stuck on a year and reached a dead end . How wrong I was ! It has been a pleasure to catch up with this series of always interesting and sometimes beautiful coins. Thank you, especially @tibor but others too.

 

If you miss a notification and don't view the thread notified, CT will stop sending you notifications on that thread until you do view. I have been caught out several times before.
Hear Hear on the comments about the great coins constantly posted here!

 

For this thread to continue we need to find 1435 and earlier.
Any help? Maybe someone who collects Islamic coins.

 

A couple of us are waiting for 1429, have Islamic coins in hand.

 

I think I can help I have a lot of Indian Sultanates stuff.

I have a crappy Mamluk

Al-Qahira Mint

Put in a low bid 100UK pounds and won it! Hopefully I can get a decent one in MS.

 

I hate being a party pooper, but I stopped participating on this thread because of the rush to go backward in time took away from the fun of enjoying seeing many coins of that year.
