Very nice quarters DBM. Those are now added to my want list. Picked me up an unc 1962 Pakistan 5 Paisa and 1976 Brazil 50 centavos to add to my collection today. The Brazil coin actually has a crane loading a ship. Had to have it. WOLF

Here you go Wolf. I figure you're probably having withdrawals by now. I thought these were interesting pieces.

They are "pattern coins", but not really, I guess. I guess these are considered essai coins, supposedly produced to test public opinion of the design?

Interesting that they made them in 2004. If I'm not mistaken Poland isn't due to join the eurozone (last I heard) until 2012 or 2015. I haven't heard an update in a while.

I guess if this design does become adopted, then they would become real pattern coins? Either way, I thought they were really sharp. Thanks for turning me onto the ships!

Now you've got me looking for them.

DANG! Those are pretty as heck. Love the bi-metallic with ships. If they do not adopt these they are crazy. They will probably put some dorky building on the real (for use) coins. WOLF

I'm surprised these weren't mentioned, unless I missed them.

1992-D Columbus Quincentenary Set. Interesting that on the dollar, they used a split image of the Santa Maria and the Space Shuttle Discovery.

90% and ships on all 4 sides!
