    Your first coins are from Greece, possibly km#90 2 Drachmai (1966-1970); still working on the others.</SPAN>

    But it looks like acanthite has beat me to the info.

    I have one like this too. Out of all my coins, it's my favorite, but unable to find out much about it. Siberian Man can you tell us what you know about it?

    This coin was issued as a commemorative of king Constantine's wedding with Anne-Marie of Denmark in 1964.
    This coin was minted at the Berne Mint (mintage 1,000,000) and also at the Kongsberg Mint (also 1,000,000 pieces)
    12 gram, silver fineness: 0.835

    SM, I understand that is was the last of the coins used in Europe before the Euro came to be used, is this true, being not so old, is there any value other then face value?

    Thanks again.

    General request. Would anyone know if the prices are elevated if I buy collector coins directly from the Mint P D or S of the newest coins I am looking for or is shoping around just as good?

    Siberian Man...nice coin in the pic. I've not seen anything like it. I'm new to this site and from what I've seen so far I think I'll become a regular. I didn't realize there were so many people out there like me..hahahaa! As far as the original post/pics...there's not much I can say that hasn't already been said. Nice coins though!
