<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cplradar, post: 7853422, member: 108985&quot;]Much of the FAO series is mundane and boring, but occasionally a truly inspirational and unique design appears.&nbsp; And this one from 1971 in Poland, a 10 Zt coin is right up there with some of the must unusial designs one will find.&nbsp; The reverse of the coin has an image of a women&#039;s breast being kissed by an infant, and the coins theme is man&#039;s first food.</p><p><br /></p><p>This sample graded from Anacs as an MS64 and was conserved by them.&nbsp; They did a nice job on it.&nbsp; First, prior to going for grade..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://images.mrbrklyn.com/coins/food_for_all_1972/.cache/1024x989-10_zlotych_1972_poland_o.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://images.mrbrklyn.com/coins/food_for_all_1972/.cache/1024x922-10_zlotych_1972_poland_r.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The yellow tone to the silver was real.&nbsp; Anfer it went for grading notice the improvement</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://images.mrbrklyn.com/coins/FOA_Set/.cache/2400x1600-IMG_8190.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://images.mrbrklyn.com/coins/FOA_Set/.cache/2400x1600-IMG_8191.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Now - one thing that you see in this coin that is quite remarkable for a modern coin, is that it has no rim to speak of!&nbsp; That is rather stark in the design.&nbsp; The reverse has some chipping or minor planchet defects on the edge of the reverse that held this example to an MS64. overal it is a beutiful coin with a bold design.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
