<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WhispTech, post: 383864, member: 1565&quot;]Well I talked to bart and he reaffrimed that information that came from a belgium coin collectors encyclopedia that it says that there was YES a 1917 der belgen coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>However he had a great idea in which to contact the Belgium mint so I did <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> so see what they have to say.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.royalmint.be/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.royalmint.be/" rel="nofollow">http://www.royalmint.be/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>added info------------</p><p><br /></p><p>I am adding some mintage numbers for 1910 - 1918 as listed in krause</p><p><br /></p><p>1910 - des belges 2,190,000 - der belgen 2,750,000</p><p>1911 - des belges 2,810,000 - der belgen 2,250,000</p><p>1912 - des belges 3,250,000 - der belgen 3,250,000</p><p>1913 - des belges 3,000,000 - der belgen 3,000,000</p><p>1914 - des belges 10,563,000 - der belgen 10,222,000</p><p>1917 - des belges 8,540,000 - der belgen (not listed for this year)</p><p>1918 - des belges 1,469,000 - der belgen (listed but unknown mintage amount)</p><p><br /></p><p>This just leads me to believe that bart information is correct even more since why would it be for 8years of mintages they do both but not for 1917 for der belgen.&nbsp; Also that encyclopedia when you add the two numbers the encyclopedia it equals the total number that krause lists.&nbsp; Its is funny how all this info adds up to there being a 1917 der belgen coin in which there has yet to be any proof to disclaim otherwise!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
