gbchaosmaster Valued Member United States 328 Posts	Posted 02/13/2008 8:05 pm A Buffalo nickel being called a krony? I have no idea what that's supposed to mean. "Krone" (plural "Kroner") is the currency of Denmark/Turkey, but I've never heard of a Buffalo nickel called a krony. EDIT: It turns out kronykoin is the name of the seller. He signs all of his items with "krony". Edited by gbchaosmaster 02/13/2008 8:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
JimR Pillar of the Community United States 1490 Posts	Posted 02/13/2008 8:10 pm I believe there is an ebay seller who uses the word krony in all his titles. I have always assumed that is his seller name. Report this Post to the Staff

I suppose Turkey would try that to get admitted to the EU? The Krone (crown) is typically a currency unit of Scandinavian countries. My avatar is a Krone from Norway. Turkey uses Lira I believe.

SeatedNut Pillar of the Community United States 2797 Posts	Posted 02/14/2008 09:32 am I believe JimR hit the nail on the head. That seller puts "Krony" in every title for visibility and for searches. You just happen to hit one for a Buffalo nickel. Edited by SeatedNut 02/14/2008 09:33 am Report this Post to the Staff
