banivechi

Sadagura (or Sadagora) mint (1771-1774)?

Hope you get well, BiggAndyy!

YeOldsCollector chose the Roman coin, so the choice now for banivechi is between the 1833 Belian coin and a BU silver Jefferson "war nickel" from the US.

Wow, thank you!

PM sent.

Wow, the Congolese lion looked at me!

Banivechi, group 8, NCLT,

Like elverno said: "An oddly beautiful coin from what is now a failed state."

10 Leke 1968 Albania

Skenderbeg

1000 Kronor 1974 Iceland

The Geyser Coin

It's not fair to make only one group group for 1901-2000!

Compare Group 6 with group 7! The richest century in numismatic items versus 9 years of low artistic value and plenty of NCLT's!

In my opinion it's better to assimilate 2001-present with NCLT and split in two the 1900-2000 period.

Breasts aren't that uncommon on coins and notes... But I can honestly say this is a first for me:

Look at this one with QEII on the obverse:

Also, How odd that your post was made eighty years to the day of the passenger list's date.

Oh, not 70?

My 1893 50 cents. Surface looks a bit porous, the weight is correct and it sounds. Can be a fake? (I bought it at Numismata Berlin from an British dealer in a 70-80 coins lot, inclusive an Ionian Islands 1819 obol, Zanzibar pysa and British west indies 1/4 dollar 1822).

Great coins, guys. What is the Straits Settlement?

I know I could use wikipedia, but I think other members would like to see an answer here

We have a friend here, see323, from that point of the world map. A very important point for the British Empire, now one of the most succesful independent state.

And I have one Straits Settlements coin, result of cherrypicking from Numismata Berlin in past october. Surface is a bit porous, the colour is suspect, the weight is correct and the sound is ok. Any opinions?

Scottishmoney is in Europe (Ukraine) as I know. I am sure that he is ok.

Nearest I have is 1681.

XV Krajczar 1686, Hungary.

Bill just sent me an unexpected gift (and very interesting too!). Many Thanks!

As always another great trade! Thanks Harri!

Received today some superb coins from Jeff! It made my day!

I got a Peace dollar from Jeff. Delivered in 5 days from US to Europe! A real pleasure to deal with!

Congrats Grivna! It was not a simple identification, and it was fast!

A wonderful godless florin coin arrived today from Bill. It is one of my top three coins...

Got a great Mexican Libertad ounce from Jeff. Great!
