Apparently I have yet to post this coin in this thread. Those days, bimetallic coins are fairly common in many countries; but they're often high denominations that don't circulate as much, and of course there were no bimetallics in circulation until the 1980s, so they didn't have quite as much time to circulate. As such, I have yet to hear about any other collector owning a lowball bimetallic coin...  West African States, 250 francs CFA, KM#13. As it happens, the date (would have been at 6 hours on the obverse) is completely worn away, but is still uniquely identifiable (1996 - yes, it's that recent) as the only year with the bee privy mark (faintly visible at 4 hours on the reverse). In terms of grading, I estimate PO-1 obverse, FR-2 to AG-3 reverse. This is by far the most worn bimetallic coin I've ever seen - of this type or any other. (Bargain bin find, incidentally. Forgot how much I paid exactly - probably somewhere around a dollar.)
