paul g Valued Member United Kingdom 115 Posts	Posted 01/16/2013 11:24 am Afternoon; I am trying to find an example of this coin to get an idea of value, but I cannot seem to find one identical.... I have seen a couple of very similar examples, however the word 'GROSSUS' on my coin has a distinctly round form of the letter 'U', and all the other examples have a very pronounced 'V' shape. Also, all the examples I have found have a 'G' mintmark, however I cannot make out the mintmark on this coin, although I would say it definately isn't a 'G' Any thoughts or explanations are much appreciated,thanks Report this Post to the Staff

paul g Valued Member United Kingdom 115 Posts	Posted 01/16/2013 12:30 pm Thanks for posting that, although it only confirms my query.. The link you posted shows 1) a coin with a G mintmark, which mine doesn't have 2) The pronounced V shape of the 'U', which mine doesn't have So basically, see original post!

plonker Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 01/16/2013 6:50 pm Ah I forgot about the shape of the U. Found this which I think matches your mint mark which is identified as S or inverted 5 in the polish coin forums. Also it looks like there are multiple variations of this 1 Grossus including you and V http://polishcoincatalogue.com/inde...age_number=0 Report this Post to the Staff
