<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Electron John, post: 2900429, member: 84417&quot;]I finally got a type C Reverse 1916 DOA (German East Africa) 20 Heller. It is a Type A Obverse. It is also known as a no error LL. It really should be called a Type A Reverse since this was the first Reverse they minted. The loop on the first L broke off on the master die early on and then most of the remaining 20 Hellers minted on that die were errors and should be called type B IMO, but are called Type A for some reason. There is also a type B Reverse with sharp pointy L&#039;s and it is the most common. There are two varieties of the Obverse as well. A large crown like shown here is type A and a the smaller crown variety is type B. Plus these all come in copper or brass making something like 12 varieties.</p><p>The history of the circumstances that these coins were minted make them extremely interesting to me. Anyway, I have been looking for any type C Reverse for a while now and finally found this one on a Germany website and I really like it.[ATTACH=full]698543[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
