NICE PICK UP

 

Did you pick that up from ebay? Good looking set!

 

Yes, I did a lot of searching and watched several before finding this one. Very happy with it.

 

Had a few dollars of ebay bucks left. Couldn't decide so I got this just as a nicer piece.

 

I just got this 1/2 ruble. pretty worn but at a very good price.

 

Coin gods have been very generous for me lately...



10 marka 1926 is MS62. And it is actually genuine (unlike the 5 marka 1926 NGC MS61 currently in eBay).

Neat design ... and probably a feast for a "coins with insects" collector.

 

Here is my latest French coin. Not old, but I figured something like "the last franc" belongs in a French collection.

 

I like it!

I thought this was the "last Franc"

 

very cool wavy design. I knew it won an award just not sure what year it was/is ???

 

2012 or 2013 I think.

 

Right, it even says "ultime franc" on the piece. The 6.55957 francs (=€1) coin was issued in 2000, thus after the euro introduction in Jan-1999 but before the euro coins became legal tender in Jan-2002. Starck's "last franc", in silver and gold, came out in September 2001.

it won "coin of the year in 2001"

the ULTIMATE FRANC, the last coin issued by France to carry the Franc denomination. A remarkable commemorative honoring the nation's monetary heritage, the Ultimate Franc was issued on September 15, 2001, just 3 months before December 31, 2001 when all French coins were converted to Euros. With a tiny mintage of only 5,000 gold coins, they quickly sold out from the Paris Mint and in the process developed a reputation for beauty and simplicity - in fact this coin WON the COIN OF THE YEAR AWARD for coins issued in the year 2001!!

 

OK, I guess I'll have to get an "ultime franc" too, when one becomes available (at a reasonable price).
