    Nice coin and a better date in UNC. There does seem to be unusual coloring on the coin for a Copper. Wear is sometimes hard to determine on these as they tend to have soft strikes. Here is mine for comparison on color.

    Here's a new pickup for my Hungarian Artex Restrikes collection. These were produced from original dies discovered by the Hungarian mint in the early 1960s.

    This is one of the rarer gold restrikes, with a mintage of only 250 pieces. It's also my favorite Hungarian gold type from the Franz Joseph period.

    I thought I would post these proof sets here, where they belong. I posted on the US thread earlier. (oops) Anyway, these are awesome sets that I got from @sonlarson at an excellent price. These are near perfect, and don't have the haze that some of the pics appear to have. Beautiful mirrors, and frosted devices. Just gorgeous. I think he still has plenty. Worth checking out for sure.
