Grades are in! Sharing a few of my favorites from recent World coins submission

I’m primarily a US coin collector but I enjoy dabbling in world coins from time to time. I have a great relationship with my LCS, and all of these were acquired there over the past decade or so. Finally submitted a batch of them at the Baltimore show. Nothing too special here……but where else am I going to show these off? Hope you guys enjoy :)…….

1643 German states (Augsburg) Kreuzer (AU 55)

1908 D Germany (Empire) 1 Mark (MS 65)

1950 New Zealand Shilling (MS 65)

1959 Ireland 6D (MS 66)

1962 Panama 1/4 Balboa (MS 67)…..color is off on the TV tbh

1953 Panama 1/10 Balboa (MS 65)

1916 Cuba 20 Centavos (XF 45)

1890 H Canada 5 cents (VF 35)

    Nice looking batch. I'm impressed with the NZ shilling and Irish sixpence; particularly the cartwheel luster on the former and the subtle pastel tones on the latter.

    Thanks LM!

    I dig your style as those are 2 of my 3 favorites as well. The other being the 1/4 Balboa (color is a bit more vivid than the tvs convey imho).

    All are pretty widgety I know, but very enjoyable for me to collect along with my usual US coin stuff.

    Well played- I like the Mark and New Zealand Shilling. I think the Australian and New Zealand coins in 65 are tougher than most collectors think.

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    Nice group. I like the Panama and the 1972 Canada Dollar - looks like nice color on that one.

    Love the Irish 6d. Not a common one to find toned. Great group, congrats!

    Good find on the 1950 New Zeeland shilling.

    That Canadian 1972 Dollar is fantastic!
