Beautiful coins Vern. The Asylum awaits you.

I'll drop by when the grandkids fall asleep.

1791 2 Heller, Hesse-Cassel.

On-site

This is actually in decent condition for the type, Krause lists beginning with VG and doesn't go above XF.

1805 1 Pfennig, Saxony

20mm

Cleaned at one point I'm sure this is an example of the H over C mintmark variant.

1814 1 Pfenning, Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel.

Larger pics as always on my site. On 98% of the pages onsite if you click the first-level images you will get larger ones.

This coin is a filler or just a small step up. It has been harshly cleaned which removed what appears to have been an old lacquer job. Pretty porous.

1813 ¼ Kreuzer, Nassau-Weilbourg.

18mm

1813 1/24 Thaler, Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach

On my site

I love the cheap, rare ones...

World Coins is one of the sub-forums here at CoinPeeps.

And a beautiful example! Have you posted this to World Coins?

1794 ¼ Stuber, Julich-Berg.

23.5mm

Nice stuff Vern. You've got quite a nice collection.

Thanks Art. I'm pickier with the medals than the coins though I'll collect a rare filler in the medals.

1811 3 Grosze, Grand Duchy of Warsaw.

26mm

1815 1 Rapen, Canton of Schwyz.

17mm

A decent enough example, apparently Schwyz issued these with quite a variety of designs. I've only seen this one however...

1790 Duit, Netherlands (Utrecht)

22mm

Strangely enough in all the years I've collected my theme this is only the 2nd coin I've picked up from the home provinces. I count the VOC coins in Netherlands East Indies. Does anyone know why they issued duits in silver as well? I assume they must have been physically smaller (didn't see a picture in Krause).

Cool mine is 15a (of course)

some toning but as with most of the coins I collect it's accidental when I get a really nice example. I've got some spectacular medals I haven't photographed yet so keep an eye on Exonumia...

1811 1 Penny token, Great Britain.

34.5mm

1804 1 Guter Pfennig, Schaumburg-Hessen

20.5mm

That 3 kreuzer must be a condition rarity!

I don't think so, at least I've seen them better but always got outbid.

1803 1/12 Skilling, Sweden.

21mm

A nice example. Usually you see these little pieces clipped or otherwise damaged.

1797 1 Kreutzer, Salzburg.

24.5mm

1797 1 Solidus, South Prussia.

16mm

A coin that could be placed under Poland (Krause does in the 3rd edition) but issued by Prussia. Poland was partitioned by its neighbors in hte 1790s and South Prussia was part of Prussia's "take". Russia and Austria were the other bad neighbors...

1807 3 Kreuzer, Würzburg.

18mm

1805 1 Heller, Saxe-Hildburghausen

16mm

Tiny, worn, tough to collect.

1814 2 Kopeks, Russia.

30mm Usual larger pics on my site.

Another from the Ekaterinburg mint from the same eBay seller.
