This 1868 Two Cent is not the best picture.

This 1868 Shield nickel is a little better.

I finally got one in here. I missed my 1877 Netherlands 1 cent (a cousin to Sander's 2.5 cents on pg 15) and 1868 Shield nickel (just like Fuzzy's nickel above). So now I will post an Italian 10 centisimi that's a year older than Sander's.

I had to throw the portrait on here. That dude looks tough!

Incredible timing strikes again!
I have owned this lovely damaged 1864 copper all of twenty minutes.
It just came in on a trade. You lucky folks are the first to see it.

Ahh - yes that is the question.
The catalogue have King Christian IX as the obverse - but who cares.
This is definitely my favourite.
