It took me a while to get caught up on shooting all of these. They came from a variety of sources, ranging from local to Ebay.
Most aren't exceptionally high grade, and nothing overly rare (except maybe the one from Dimitri); I bought most for their color, character, or originality.
First a few from board members:
Ionian Islands 1/2 Obol, 1819. From Dimitri. Lovely purple color. A few rim nicks on the obverse, but nothing too obtrusive.
Spain 2 Centimos, 1870. Got this one from BlackHawk. Nice array of color!
And the rest:
Canada 1 Cent, 1928. Deep purple-brown.
Canada 5 Cents, 1909. Deep blue... unfortunately I missed the scuffs on Edward's head.
Austria Florin, 1879. Nice peripheral bits of color.
Austria Florin, 1888. Ditto.
Baden 1/2 Gulden, 1838. Deep, almost black steel toning.
Germany 50 Pfennig, 1876 H. Deep gold toning, almost turning bronze in a few places.
Great Britain 1d, 1863. A date I didn't already have.
Wurttemberg 3 Marks, 1912 F.
Spain Peseta, 1896. Great obverse! Reverse = meh.
Papal States 10 Soldi, 1867. Cute little silver piece with champagne toning.
Netherlands 1 Cent, 1878. Common piece but quite lustrous.
Netherlands 1 Cent, 1876.
Germany 20 Pfennigs, 1874 A. A little bit o' rainbow on this circulated piece.
Mexico 8 Reales, 1894 CnAM.
Colombia 10 Centavos, 1920. I like the deep gunmetal appearance of this piece.
Bavaria 3 Marks, 1911 D. Extremely crusty!
Schwarzburg-Rudolfstadt Thaler, 1867. Nice obverse color. Only 13,000 minted!
Bavaria 2 Marks, 1911 D. More color!
Denmark 1/5 Skilling, 1814. Tiny little copper piece. Love the die breaks and broken planchet.
Philippines 10 Centavos, 1944 D. Cheap little coin, but I just love the color!
Denmark 2 Skilling, 1810. I fell in love with the NGC MS66 that I had bought a while back, so when I saw this one and the next piece, I just had to have them. Between the color and the deteriorated die state, what's not to love?
Denmark 2 Skilling, 1811. Nice cud!
Baden 2 Marks, 1906. One of the nicest examples of color I've bought in a long time. Just marvelous.
