They are dated mostly from the 1700's to the early 1900's.

A couple of them may date to the 13th or 14th century.

Should be fun to go through them.

See photo of the coins.

    Welcome to the DARKSIDE 😄

    I manage money. I earn money. I save money .
    I give away money. I collect money.

    Have fun! Next thing you know you will be trying the One From Every Country. And get distracted by one or two of the countries. And then really go down a rabbit hole. Ask me how I know :smiley:

    So far I have gone through 48 of the 85 coins. I have determined (with your help on a few of them) what 45 of the 48 are,

    Will work on the remaining 37 coins later tonight and this week.

    I will likely ask for help from forumites on some of the other coins.

    When I finish my review I will post a reply that sets forth a list of the 85 coins and what I have found.

    This has been a fun project so far. I am learning tons of "stuff".

    The first item shown in the group photo (top left corner) may not be a coin.

    See photos of this item alone.

    Turns out the total pieces is 86 not 85.

    I have gone through all 86 and have identified (with your help) 81 of the 86.

    I will post a summary of all 86 in the next few days.
