    Hmm looking at this page only, I see 2 coins I need for my set.

    @Galen59 your 1916 Panama 2/12 Centesimos and @dirty_brian your 1932 Cuba Un Peso are both US minted.

    I haven't been buying any coins lately, so I haven't posted here in a while. Until now, that is! :)

    I really like the shell on the reverse of this 1966 Bahamian $1 coin:

    New Henry Vii Groat. It's double struck, was surprised no one else went after it. Got a good deal on it.

    Picked one up today along with a few more.

    Near and Far to rim on these refers to the MM. Yours and mine is a Far D, the near D's are all proofs I believe.

    Here are the rest of the coins I scored today. All of them are US Minted as well.

    I feel as though I am losing my so called mind. I could swear I just posted this one as my latest acquisition maybe an hour or two ago. Maybe it was a different but similar thread? IIII Heller, Aachen. 1754 Aachen IIII h obv.JPG 1754 Aachen IIII h rev.JPG

    Is there a feint "O" or "Q" next to the "O" in "Peso" or are my eyes playing tricks on me.

    This just showed up, 1824 Nova Scotia one penny token. The handsome dude on the obverse looks like George III, but is probably George IV? 1824 NS 1 p token obv.JPG 1824 NS 1 p token rev.JPG

    Yes definitely George IV. Compare this Crown from around the same time:
    1821 Crown 1.jpg

    If he were alive today he would be in trouble for his sexual advances I suspect! He was a renowned womaniser and drunk, and very vain.

    I have this one coming from Portugal. I think this design is great. 1903 Denmark 2 Kroner. I had to get one after seeing one posted here in world coins. My wish list keeps growing with all the great coins you all are posting here!:) What grade would you assign to this one? AU or MS? denmark 1903 2 kroner obv.jpg denmark1903 2 kroner obv.jpg
