<p>[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 2194451, member: 15488"]One of the thing about coins from San Marino is that they change their designs every year. I think I would go crazy trying to put together a type set from that country. The 1973 Mint set does follow a theme however. The 500 Lire is "Peace in the World". The 100 Lire is "Spreading of Learning". 50 Lire "Social Justice". 20 Lire "Human Solidarity". 10 Lire "Safeguarding past patrimony and protection of environment". 5 Lire Men are citizens of the world". 1 Lire "Against Hunger in the World". The 1-10 Lire are Aluminum. The 20 Lire is Aluminum-Bronze. The 50 and 100 Lire are Steel and the 500 Lire is 0.8350 Silver. The 500 Lire is the only coin showing any signs of tarnishing despite the fact that the mint packaging appears to be sealed. I found a small crack in the seam along side of the 500 Lire and thus the cause of the toning. An interesting set that I am glad to add to the collection.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]426746[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
