Forgery could be a nonsense, in fact.

I can add an interesting figure. Thickness should be 2.0 mmand it is for the first one, but it's 1.8 for the second one and that's what I regard as an important point of interest.

I understood the main things that are what I needed. Thank you very much.

Hallo everybody.

I got two different coins of the issue in the subject, classified by Krause as 843.1 and 843.2 (different mint marks). The point is that weights are really differente. Krause's weight is 6.4 grams, but the first one i owe is 6.6 and the second one 6.0. Latter's thickness in really lower. I'd like to know if anybody knows this differebce or if I have to consider the case of forgery

Thanks in advance

Luca

843.1

843.2

Hallo everybody.

I need a help to understand how I can undertsand the difference between the Danish issue (Krause's C#47) and the Norwegian one (KM#245a) of the coin in the subject. They were issued by two differents mints, but how can I recognize them?

Thanks in advance

Luca

Hallo everybody.

I'd like to know something more aboit this token. precisely, I'd like to know your opinion about its genuinity and its usage.

It should have been issued by Andernach's City Council (a German town, now in Rhineland) in 1725

On obverse, Andernach's seal.

Great medals. Thanks for sharing

I'm really so sorry not to have seen this thread, before. Thank you so much!

Another one from Genova!

Surely moroccan coins, but we need large pics

I bought a lot of them at wery low prices, but only more common ones...

Che Guevara has never been President or Prime Minister, anyway.

Mussolini could not be portraited on Italian coins, because this "honour" was reserved to the king. Let's not forget, Vittorio Emanuele III was an important numismatist and coin collector (and more interested in numsimatics than in his states' affairs) and he would have never allowed Mussolini to change this law. After the birth of Italian Social Republic, dies were transeferred from Rome to Aosta, so that there were no change in coinage.

Hitler, simply, was not interested in such a thing, that he would have probably considered as monarchist... Anyway, there were some projects to coin "Hitler coin" but Germany was at the end of its most obscure period

happy birthday!

But I still don't know what it actually is

Nice token, but I still prefer the original

No value, different weight and dimensions. It's all, but a normal one

 

Hmmm

 

Better not let you die.

 

 

 

It would appear that the photo is quite grainy. My apologies.

Great coin! Congratulations

Could you post a couple of images to show us the difference, please?

Thanks for your post

It means you're not have been warned by forum's staff. You can see your warnings, not other memebers' ones.

Do the coins from Vatican City and Monaco actually circulate or are they just collector sets?

I saw just 3 Monaco, 2 San Marino and 2 Vaticane coins circulating. Just a mintage's little portion is actually circulating, even if EU is now trying to force these countries to let half or more of the whole mintage circulate, but it's a hard struggle...

I use to collect circulated coins, since they reflect history through everyday stories or, at least, I think so.
