Sir Sisu Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Oh my, this one was tough! I really like silver and it just makes coins look better in my eyes. The reverse has a very nice design and an excellent tone. The obverse is the weak link for me. The schwaren is copper which is often a drawback for me. And this coin is worn and dirty. Not the best for this fashion show. However, I quite like the look of the key and the font of the reverse numbers. What decided it for me was the thoughts that the schwaren awoke in me. It oozes a look of cool history of the commoner. Perhaps it helped pay for a beer at a beerhall, paid for lodging at a gasthause, or paid for a dirty deed, or just a newspaper. It just looks cool.
