<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 2560443, member: 46237&quot;]Here are my two most notable pickups from the Whitman Expo today:</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria 2 Gulden-Florin 1859B</b></p><p><b>NGC MS63</b></p><p>KM-2230 AR 0.900 24.69g 36mm</p><p><br /></p><p>This is a Hungarian coin minted during the Austrian occupation period following Hungary&#039;s loss in the War of Independence. From 1851-1867, Hungary&#039;s mints struck Austrian types with mint marks B, E, and G. These Hungarian issues are extremely scarce compared to Vienna strikes of the same types. The 2 Gulden-Florin denomination was only struck in Hungary for one year and is a scarce issue with unknown mintage numbers.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin has amazing cartwheel luster and a proof-like cameo reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]551738[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]551739[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Austria 1898 Signvm Memoriae Medal</b></p><p><b>AE Uniface Die Splash</b></p><p><br /></p><p>This is a (bronze?) uniface die splash of the 1898 Signvm Memoriae Medal issued to commemorate the Franz Joseph I 50th anniversary of reign jubilee (1848-1898).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]551740[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
