<p>[QUOTE="Bill in Burl, post: 1458707, member: 23692"]I personally chose either 1920 or WWII as the start of modern coinage, depending upon the country. Others say 1967 or thereabouts, when most countries ceased issuing silver coinage. For the Asian countries, I choose around 1800 or so .. still some squared cash and small yen around, but getting into firmly milled coinage. For antiques, I use 1892, when all exporting countries had to put a country or origin on their wares if it went to the States. For most "Western" democracies, I use WWII.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
