[QUOTE="Hookman, post: 3258947, member: 99642"]I have over 100 of the '57 t0 '67 Mexican silver Pesos. Only .100 fine and mostly toned and tarnished, though a few still in mint packaging. I have another tub of everything else Mexican, from 5 Centavo silver coins up to Cien Pesos silver coins and most everything in between. I have a 1 Gallon Tabasco sauce jug full of '59 to '81 copper cents. I have numerous Coffee-Mate containers of pennies marked Unsearched, Unsearched '83 + , Unsearched '81 -, Unsearched rolls, Ready to Roll(searched), errors, tones, NAs (non aligned), etc.. I have a USPS box of Canadian slabs and boxed commemoratives. I have a Coffee-Mate tub of Canadian everything else from dimes to dollars. I have a large number? of Austrian 5 and 10 Schilling coins. ( I like the horse on one and the maiden on the other.) I have tubs for many different countries, none of which are full...yet. The fact is, almost everything I have fits in the "quantity" category rather than the "quality" one. However, I do have a few in the Quality category. One is an Italian 1 Marengo Isola D'Elba silver coin. [URL='https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/1971-marengo-isola-elba-italy-silver-159630217']1971-marengo-isola-elba-italy-silver-159630217[/URL] From the link : " Obverse ITALIA Sunface in order chain. Reverse ISOLA D'ELBA 1 MARENGO Design is of the Isle of Elba. Interestingly enough, this coin is listed in the Colin R. Bruce II catalog of Unusual World Coins - it is listed as X# Tn11 - Isola D'Elba But the listing is incorrect - in the catalog it states that the date for this coin is ND1998 (meaning, No Date, and date of issuance is 1998), but it is actually from 1971; The reverse design is also incorrect , it states; Castle with eight shields, name above. The only coin of this series that actually has that particular design is; ASIAGO, ITALY X# Tn11, and is the only one listed that shows a picture. The value listed in the UWC catalog would be correct, as this coin is so rare and hard to find: $65.00 in BU condition. " I've looked it up on the Numista site before but can't find it there now. If I remember correctly, it has a NRI (Numista Rarity Index) of 85. I like it a lot.[/QUOTE]
