If my memory serves me correctly, these were minted using the same equipment (and edging dies) as the previous colonial portraits - hence the same edge design (and opposing design overlaps).

The more I see of some of the South American coins the more I appreciate the classic designs and art work. If I can ever get the grand kids' Canada registry sets finished I'm going to start collecting some of them- particularly Cuba, Peru and Chile.
Here's another 66 from PCGS that's pretty nice I think...
No,no- the kids and the cat are all right honey. It's just that I got my PCGS grades.
I don't know. The coin was in an album as I understand it. Raymond Wayte albums particularly deliver pretty much this same pattern of color over the years.
It's no big deal, but still frustrating...

I know the picture is of poor quality but I fell in love with this coin's edge.

Possibly in the widget class, but I'm a sucker for big bronze coins.

<< <i>My NEWP From NEN. PCGS MS62BN. I don't see these copper provisional issues very often, so I pounced on it last night.

Doggedly collecting coins of the Central American Republic.

Comment: Questionable color.
I don't know. The coin was in an album as I understand it. Raymond Wayte albums particularly
deliver pretty much this same pattern of color over the years.
