<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aidan Work, post: 61420, member: 1824&quot;]Roy,the Mexico City mint never struck coins for Spain.However,the Mexico City mint did</p><p>strike 1 Rupee coins for India around 1997,as I have got one of these.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is a very unusually clear date for the Double Tournois,as they usually turn up very</p><p>worn.Did you know that &#039;Double Tournois&#039; is the source for 2 British Commonwealth denominations? The Double (pronounced &#039;dooble&#039;) was a coin from Guernsey,&amp; the nickname &#039;Turner&#039; comes from &#039;Tournois&#039;.This was a Scots 2d. coin (also called a Bodle),</p><p>which was very similar in design to the Double Tournois.The Double Tournois was also issued by various French states,such as Dombes.I have got a Dombes Double Tournois,</p><p>which has a distinctive mark on the reverse,&amp; it was issued by a ruler named Gaston.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aidan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
