Chilian New Member Netherlands 41 Posts	Posted 07/21/2011 5:49 pm Does anyone know what the mark stands for on a 1 frank coin from Belgium just right of the head of king Boudewijn (1989-1993; KM 170-171)? It look likes an "E" with a sword through it. Can anybody help? Moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

Enlil Pillar of the Community Australia 560 Posts	Posted 07/22/2011 02:39 am I believe it is a mint mark or privy mark, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identi...n_euro_coins and http://www.wbcc.fsnet.co.uk/af-bun.htm so might indicate the mint master. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16876 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 05:41 am I would assume it's the coin designer's mark. I haven't been able to track down who actually designed these coins. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Chilian New Member Netherlands 41 Posts	Posted 07/23/2011 07:20 am @Enlil, thanks for your replies. Unfortanetly, none of these links supply me with an answer. At least I can't find it. @Sap: thanks for your efforts. I would think someone would know what the mark stands for since it's not a mysterious country and/or a coin of yarn.
