A few interesting pieces...

Germany 5 Marks, 1938J. Looks nicer in person than the pic. Think I need to redo the lighting on this one.
Mexico 25 Centavos, 1878 GoS. I've always had a soft spot for Mexican coins. A couple of nasty rim dings on this one though.
Mexico 25 Centavos, 1888 MoM. This one was tough to photograph because of the lustre; see both sets of pics below.
Russia 5 Kopecks, 1778 EM. As nice as I was hoping. Time for some acetone though...
Denmark 4 Skilling, 1856. A very nice XF/AU, IMO.
Liberia 2 Cents, 1862. I like how these pics turned out; I seem to do much better with non-lustrous coins...

NEN has an 1847 pattern of approximately the same design in NGC PF63BN for $449...

goossen: You're collecting 3rd Reich? Me too

. I have a type set (still looking for a couple of upgrades) and am currently working on a set of the 2 & 5 Marks...all types, dates & mints. Tough series to find in nice condition, huh? - Preussen

Yes, I love my 3rd. Reich coins!
I completed the Zinc series (by type and mintmark) and now started with these 2 and 3 RM.

Do you have the alliierte besatzung ones?

<< <i>Do you have the alliierte besatzung ones? >>

I have one of each in my type set, and also a proof. - Preussen

They are all very nice, but I really like the Liberia...

Nice coins Preussen ! Thanks for posting them... Those are the next ones on my want list...

Nice pics and coins! BTW, for my opinion, verdigris from Russian 5 kopeks could be excluded using only olive oil, without taking acetone at all.
