Art Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 syzygy's USA 1938 Buffalo nickel Saor Alba's Portugal 4 Centavos 1919 I have a lot of these coins, in fact I have several of them that show the successive breaking down of the die that struck them. This is a decent sized coin, unusual denomination and a stark feminine design that was utilitarian. Unfortunately inflation rendered them worth more in melt than as coins and they did not circulate long because of that. Much of the small change of the era was notgeld.
