One very rare year is the 1918 Proof that got release as Normal coin. Find one big money..

 

Another new addition to my Australian type set.

 

Looks like a solid XF, nice coin.

Thanks, Its an EF but it has been cleaned, it will work for now. Only 2 coins to go, 1910 florin, and the 1934-1935 Melbourne florin.

Both those can be pricey coins :/ especially the Melbourne one. I wish you the best of luck!

 

And speaking of Aussie coins, picked up this semi key date for my half penny set. I believe it's the second hardest one to get. Nice solid coin, even wear and coloring.

 

I love silver coins, the bigger the better...

 

New GB 4 Pence.

 

Finally got one of these. Mexico 8 Reales. Been wanting ones of these for years!

 

I have a AU53 1788. One of my favorite coins in my collection. Got it when I got back into collecting in 2008.

 

ZZZ, PCGS just slabbed it as a regular issue despite me putting a comment that it was the Type II on the form:

Anyone wanna play spot the difference?

Came across this a few days ago and added to my World Mint/Proof Set Collection.
For some reason I like the simple design of the Danish coins. I wonder why they holed the 25 Ore? I also like the mint mark and designer initials. S "Heart" B. With a worn mint mark, the heart could look like an O.

Trivia question: What book did Queen Margrethe II help translate?
Challenge question: What does "Danmarks Dronning" translate too?

1974 Denmark (Danmark) mint Set Mintage na

 

I copped out and used Google, but how cool! The Lord of the Rings!

And Google translate gets me to "the Queen of Denmark."

Usually such central holes were used to save material and/or to make coins bigger. The 25 øre and a few others had holes for a long time. Today that denomination is not legal tender any more - the 1, 2 and 5 kroner coins have central holes instead.

Nothing wrong with Google, I use it just about every day.

 

A nice piece of medieval Spanish silver, so it fits here and in the ancients forum. Did a write up in the ancients forum about it if anyone wants to read it.

My british florin arrived today. This pretty much complete my denomination run of vicky in silver.

 

I've been lusting after this 1930 Tunisia 100f for the art nouveau style, and finally picked one up.
