<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Iceman57, post: 1502223, member: 16712&quot;]Super nice coin my friend. I looked it over as best as I can from your picture and I think it has a very good chance of grading a ms66. I really didnt see any contact marks and the only thing I seen was a depression running across the I in Island which is due to the metal being rolled when making the sheet for punching into planchets but other then that it looks to be the best one ever seen by me. </p><p>And as far as other 1925 2 kronur&#039;s in Unc we only have 4 comfirmed,,my two and your two coins....A dealer in Canada had one listed in UNC/BU but sold it be I had the chance to contact him. and with the one that the king of Denmark has make it a total of 6 of them ......Well there maybe be others out there but after 9 years of searching for Unc Kingdom coins we only have 4 confirmed UNC&#039;s. </p><p>The story you told about the Icelandic people being poor around the time of the minting of these coins are true and I have said the same thing myself People just did not have the means to collect these coins,,,,,,</p><p><br /></p><p>But I must say Siggi that your new coin maybe the exception to the rule as you stated about coins not being sold to the public because i didnt see any contact marks on yours ,,,Telling me that this coin possibly never went it to a bag and was proply set aside after it was made.....maybe to be given to someone of importance in Iceland. ..Its very hard for a coin not to have a few or even one mark on it.</p><p>Well Siggi all I can say is that you are no lucky dog. Congrad&#039;s my friend on a great score.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
