<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1022118, member: 112&quot;]No, it isn&#039;t. The boys at cgb have made an oops this time. But then so did I. </p><p><br /></p><p>I wil agree with them about the mint, the coin was struck at Romans, not Saint-Andre de Villeneuve-les-Avignon. But the mint mark for Romans is the crowned R. The reason I made my mistake is because when I checked the list of mint marks in both Duplessy and Ciani they said R was the mm for Saint-Andre de Villeneuve-les-Avignon. But that is a plain R. </p><p><br /></p><p>In checking more closely the mm for Romans is typically a Y, that&#039;s part of why I missed it the first time. But Romans also used the crowned R as their mint mark. This is confirmed in every book I have.</p><p><br /></p><p>I readily agree that the coin you found on cgb matches your coin. But everything else I said about the design for the various varieties is true. This one matches none of the varieties listed in any of the books. Both of these coins have an extra R on them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
