[QUOTE="MissSasha, post: 711882, member: 20786"]No, the word is indeed GERSH I have Krause opened in front of me, with the whole 4 and a half pages on Ethiopia. "GERSH" is obviously in Krause (1901 to present, aka 2006, 33rd edition). You must not have looked at an actual catalog before posting. Gersh refers to the "1895a" aka 1903-1928 coin, struck in Paris I am LOOKING at the word RIGHT NOW. In fact, here's a picture from Krause in case anyone also had trouble finding it: [IMG]http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy156/LibbyLobster/IMG_1124.jpg[/IMG] The SECOND one "1936", I did make a mistake with, it's not a Gersh it's a Cent, stuck not ONLY in Philly US, but also Birmingham/London, UK between 1944. I thought it was a Gersh due to similarity in size. Mystery solved, appears I have "opined" correctly with one minor exception :)[/QUOTE]
