Hey Nick, Are you talking about my avatar? I've never had one.. I haven't seen one I've liked yet.  Next coin:  I may not be back online tonight, but will in the morning. |

Ohh.. sorry! it was me getting you confused with someone else...(Christine)
Hmmm now let me see, that coin looks like a Netherlands East Indies 2.5 Cents I am selling but it isn't quite the same! It's in the type of writing...(Javanese/Malayan)
So it must be a Netherlands East Indies 1 Cent from the series 1936-1945. I still don't know what the flowers are on the reverse side shown in the photo but my book says the reverse design is of a Corn of Rice.
Does this mean I have to go again?

Is that a guess?  Well I guess that's not the right! |

No? It does look like coins from the 1830/1 uprising.. in fact the crown details and the not so well placed letters suggest it's a
5 zlotych 1831 - C#124 (in my old Krause).

Correct! Though I could not give you a hint as you have to guess the whole thing yourself..

I went ahead absentmindedly and posted my quezzie without thinking I have to be verified first...I must have been confident! I love that Javanese script, very artistic. I'm just surprised they coins aren't worth more than the book values suggest. Maybe one day they will be. |
