Carl man dit is gigantenwerk

One small comment for people like me who surf too much on ebay
and know too much of the wrong stuff

If you mean goud say gold
If you mean goudkleurig say golden
If you mean goudmengsel say goldcontaining or impure gold
in France the word gold is legally acceptable from 18 carat upwards
below 18 carat it has to be called gold containing

The argentino I have been chasing in MS for 4 years now
(without paying an arm and a leg )
It seems to be allways some bad kind of AU at best
It is definitely a gold coin

Do not take this as critique from a southern neighbour but from somebody who understands some flemish and english

Very good info tromp.

I have done my best to answer josie's questions in this thread. I placed it there rather than here so Carl's dictionary thread wouldn't get hijacked...

Well done Carl... when you're done, we might get Mom and Dad to compine and sort it properly and give it a link in the articles and information section.

I assume that little Asia is meant to be Asia Minor. In that case that would be modern-day Turkey and nearby countries. From what I have read the touchstone was discovered in Asia Minor which allowed gold to be used as money with the ability to test for forgeries.

Verry difficult Jodie, my perssonal is an Euro-Asian country.

For Russia, if that comes to the EU, I know for shure I will wander out to the outback of Australia!

The Russian economie does not fit in the EU system, and the mentality there shure doesn't.

Perhaps you could edit the name of this thread to be the thread for the letter A. And others can add information about "A" in this thread.
Then start a new Thread with "B", and another thread for "C" etc.


Adding to "A"
A - Mint mark letter on Australian dollar coins (1996 to 1999) for the city of Adelaide. Some of these coins were minted on a portable press in Adelaide, South Australia and some were minted in Royal Australian Mint in Camberra, ACT Australian Capital Territory.

A - Mint mark letter on the 2006 silver proof dollar. Australian collectors where never told what this "A" stood for and our best guess is that "A" stands for "Australia" or "ANDA" (Australasian Numismatic Dealers Association) as it was sold at their shows.

Confused? So are Australian collectors. LOL
