 Sorry, I don't have pictures of the other sides, weights or diameters. Just those without a cross please.  >:D

I see you got all the difficult ones, so how did you miss the easy coins? :laughing:

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

I didn't know where to begin!  :D

I think there's some kind of pitis (10), I think (7) is from the 1920s as it's the most circular flan, and maybe one of (23) or (46) is Iranian.  ???

All good fun. Looking forward to the results. :)

neither coin is in Krause, there are some counterstamped versions of no.23 on Zeno (but no originals) whilst no.46 I could not find at all.  Yet 23 was correctly identified by Velind and 46 by Spabreda.  Perhaps Saro should have entered....

I will post the coins and invite more comments over the weekend :)
