<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WhispTech, post: 383993, member: 1565&quot;]Thanks to bart he sent me scans of the pages from the &quot;De Belgische Frank - Encyclopedie van de Belgische circulatiemunten&quot; (The Belgian franc - encyclopedia of the Belgian circulation coins): I am going to host them for the mean time but they clearly show that there was 1 frank des belges and der belgen minted for 1917.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.execulink.com/~whisp1/images/coin/belgiumtext2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.execulink.com/~whisp1/images/coin/belgiumtext1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Next I would like to draw attention to what was listed in Krause and in this Belgium book for the 1918 mintages.</p><p><br /></p><p>Krause lists as 1918 - des belges 1,469,000 - der belgen (listed but unknown mintage amount with a dash (-))</p><p><br /></p><p>Encyclopedia lists as 1918 - des belges 370,000 - der belgen 1,099,220 ---- combine both = 1,469,220</p><p><br /></p><p>Again Krause has listed the 1918 in the des belges(french) section the combined number for both which is the same as what bart explained happend for the 1917.&nbsp; Looks like Krause needs to update there numbers on these coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
