Okay so I have recently started a US Minted World coin set. After looking at the PCGS set registry list for these types I realized there are over 1000 different world coins minted by the US. To help me narrow down what I want to add to my collection, I thought I would make a "Post Yours" thread to get a look at them. Here is a link to the PCGS list. Take a look and see if you have any of these. If so POST EM regardless of condition. https://www.PCGS.com/SetRegistry/mu...osition/4824I'll bet there are a few of you who have some of the coins in the list above and don't even realize that they were minted in the US. Not all of them have a US MM on them. I will start with my 1941 (P) Netherlands East Indies 1/4 Gulden. Minted in Philadelphia.  Now let's see some yours!! Edited by commems

I believe all of Cuba's coins since independence from Spain until the Castro takeover were minted at the Philadelphia Mint. Here is an example of a 1915 silver 40 Centavos.   |

During World War II the Dutch government in exile arranged to have coins made by the US mints for the colonies still under their control. This is an example of a 1944 silver 1/10th Gulden minted in Denver for the island of Curacao.   |

Many of the Dominican Republic coins were struck by US mints.This is a 5 Centavos 1944 struck at the Philadelphia mint in silver at the same standards as US silver War Nickels. A one year type.   |

Panamanian coinage over the years was also made by the U.S. Mint - here's one of my favorites, a half million being struck in 1947 to the U.S. silver dollar specification (although no silver dollars had been struck by the U.S. for domestic circulation since 1935).   Here's a Chinese yuan ostensibly dated 1934 but which I believe to be one of the thirty million restruck in 1949 by the U.S. Mint.   Although I don't have one to show, in 1949 the Mexican 1898 Mo peso was also reproduced for the China trade. Mexico City churned out eight and a quarter million of these, with the U.S. Mint in San Francisco mint chipping in with another two million. On this topic in general, here's a worthwhile article: http://pdxcoinclub.org/articles/For...%20table.pdf Colligo ergo sum

Wow nice coin...Must admit I'm a little jealous. I don't have a Balboa yet. But they are on the top on my want list. Thanks for posting this to the thread. Edited by MontCollector
