There are two different varieties for this coin. One with a
"forward facing" "2" in the date, the other with a "backwards"
"2".

 

Here is the "backwards " "2". Should read "Pommerania"

 

This is a Half Schwertgroschen.

 

Mint State 67

A couple of upgrades picked up yesterday:

 

A Half Groschen from Mainz.

 

This Half Schwertgroschen is from Schneeberg.
This one has a date on both sides.

 

This piece from Heidleberg is a goldgulden.
This is not listed in Levinson's book. It has a
"lightning bolt" for the "5". Both Aethelred
and Lord Marcovan confirmed the piece.

 

Re-acquired this one from my youth stash. When I was 10, and this piece was new, I acquired it personally while in Guatemala with my grandparents. We stayed a month in a travel trailer park outside of Guatemala City, from which we made tourist excursions to a few places.

 

It’s been cleaned, but it’s still my first Maundy coin.

 

A little beat up but I like the look of the reverse!

 

This Half-Albus was minted in the Palatinate.

 

This Scherf was struck in Erfurt.

 

This Toison D' Argent was struck in Antwerp.

 

This rare copper Double Mite was struck in Namur.

 

1917 Great Britain 2/6d
