sigistenz Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Interesting mintmark. What do you think it is? EM from worn out dies - sometimes it looks like BM where no BM existed (the 1830-1839 copper coins). Which is your coin? Sigi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKB Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Looks like K.M. to me. enough suspense... please show the coin! No suspense, on contrary, I wanted to break the boredom here... It is a Nicholas I 5 kop from 1830's. I just have this picture. I will have to find the coin to post the photographs. It is EM, because there is FX on the other side, but that E looks like a K quite a bit. This is not a BM type, which I also have somewhere. I am still wondering if it is a broken die, which it most probably is, or if someone punched in a K and then tried to fix it. After all, metal is missing from where it should have been (lover line, but is present where there should not be any metal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
