<p>[QUOTE=&quot;World Colonial, post: 2417363, member: 78153&quot;]I believe there are potentially many coins listed in Krause that do not and possibly never did exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>As examples, there are circulation strike South Africa farthings listed for 1933, 1934 and 1936.&nbsp; The NGC population report lists three 1936 (same as the mintage records) but I don&#039;t believe they are real circulation strikes.&nbsp; Heritage has sold one or two of them and in one listing, described it as a &quot;specimen&quot;.&nbsp; I suspect its actually a poorly struck proof or a coin not struck on a polished coin blank, as according to the leading authority on Union coinage, no circulation strikes were actually issued.&nbsp; 1933 and 1934 circulation strikes have never surfaced.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
