tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7933 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 06:57 am I'd not seen that Austrian 2 groschen before, Odd devices for Austria, more Swiss-like. Interesting. On the Irish series, the designer was better known for some of his more strongly influenced Art Deco medals, which is why I brought it up. I agree they (the coins) are not as clearly Art Deco in style as other items posted, yet I find the representation of the animals somewhere between realistic and the more highly stylized Art Deco look.

EllieTheDog Valued Member Ireland 53 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 07:45 am I don't see any art deco coins by Percy Metcalfe at a quick search. Could you share some? Edited by EllieTheDog 10/08/2025 07:46 am Report this Post to the Staff
EllieTheDog Valued Member Ireland 53 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 08:18 am I found this French one in my collection. This design has a lot that I would describe as Art Deco. Report this Post to the Staff

EllieTheDog Valued Member Ireland 53 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 10:58 am Yes, those all look Art Deco to me. The 70s 10 Francs only have an art deco design on the obverse, and the Vichy coins have subtle art deco designs present in the stylised wheat, similar to earlier French coin designs. The Austria ones are very Art Deco influenced. I did not show both sides of my example of the later Republik 10 Groschen, but they are both quite fitting. The font on the 2 Groschen coin, as well as the numeral design, make it really attractive to me. Report this Post to the Staff
EllieTheDog Valued Member Ireland 53 Posts	Posted 10/08/2025 11:47 am There were coins in general circulation in the Dominican Republic depicting Faro A Colon, the Lighthouse of Columbus. An Art Deco-Indigenous combination architectural mega structure which took about 60 years after being conceived to actually be constructed. The lighthouse projects a giant Christian cross into the sky to represent the arrival of Christianity to America. When this coin was minted, it still had not been completed. The project was funded by several North and South American countries, and funded through the sale of stamps depicting the lighthouse which were sold all throughout the Americas at the time. The Dominican government claims the lighthouse contains the remains of Christopher Columbus, but they have refused DNA testing. The lighthouse opened in 1992. Report this Post to the Staff
