<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 865037, member: 19065&quot;]Thank you for the links and info Christian. I cannot read the French&nbsp; copy on those web sites but the on the second link, if you scroll all the way&nbsp; down to the bottom, it includes an image of the US Walking Liberty Half Dollar coin bearing a similarity as I noted. Can you translate what that site is telling us about the similarity?</p><p><br /></p><p>I didn&#039;t mean to suggest that one inspired the other because I had no way of knowing that at the time of my post and not much knowledge of French numismatics to know which preceded the other. I just felt there was a compositional design similarity and that both coins existed in circulation in the same general time period or era. </p><p><br /></p><p>With regards to how long some designs take to be created be minted, and then how long those coins last running in circulation, number of years they are minted for, those 20 years of difference doesn&#039;t seem all that much of but a drop in the bucket to call the design common to an era.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
