luke_idk Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Right, I'll do it for sure. Probably I'll manage to translate it, but it'll take a lot of time, since I'm really busy, in this period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcsa Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I have posted this somewhere else on the forum before i found this topic which is where i should have posted it. Can someone tell me more about this 1910 1 rupie from German East Africa. Why does it have a thick edge around it's perimeter as all the pictures of these coins that i have found on the net don't have it - could it be an error coin i'm a newbie to coin collecting and was kind of forced into it when i inherited stuff from my grandfather hope the pics show what i'm asking - any help would be appreciated.

The photos (in particular the first one) are too small to be 100 % sure, but I'd say that your coin was damaged by somebody flattening its rim. It is not an error coin, now it is just a piece of silver worth about 12.47 dollars at today's silver price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
