<p>[QUOTE="snewman, post: 1351366, member: 31036"]Hey guys, I picked up a couple of 1957 Spain Pesetas today in XF-AU condition for extremely cheap just because they looked interesting. I was looking them up tonight and noticed that the star-63 turns out to be pricey. The star-65 isn't so pricey, but has huge doubling on the lettering of the lower half of the obverse. Attached a few quick shots with handheld and flash. Sorry for the quality, but my one-year-old won't let me set up the rig. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Kind of interesting what you learn from world coins.

[QUOTE="snewman, post: 1351366, member: 31036"]Hey guys, I picked up a couple of 1957 Spain Pesetas today in XF-AU condition for extremely cheap just because they looked interesting. I was looking them up tonight and noticed that the star-63 turns out to be pricey. The star-65 isn't so pricey, but has huge doubling on the lettering of the lower half of the obverse. Attached a few quick shots with handheld and flash. Sorry for the quality, but my one-year-old won't let me set up the rig. :) Kind of interesting what you learn from world coins. Apparently these were 'commissioned' in 1957, but then they put the year minted in a little star on the reverse (63 or 65, etc...). Thoughts? Thanks, -snewman Close up on doubling on the 65: [ATTACH]156814.vB[/ATTACH] Reverse of 63: [ATTACH]156815.vB[/ATTACH] Obverse of 65: [ATTACH]156816.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
