gxseries Pillar of the Community Australia 3834 Posts	Posted 01/07/2012 07:34 am What I reckon my favorite are as follows: From China: Unofficial state emblem struck in 1926 - I think it was to commemorate Emperor Pu Yi's wedding. Still pretty neat. Only if it didn't have a hole, it would be worth a fair bit more. Kweichow Province 10 cash - only coin to be struck in antimony that did circulate. Worthless back then but now it's commanding super ridicious prices. Kiaochao or now known as Qingdao - former German colony. Interesting to see both German and Chinese text. Pretty neat design. Japan 50 sen Malaysia 1 ringgit Fell victim to heavy counterfeiting. Russia 1913 commemorative ruble A rather sad story of a Tsar getting commemorated and get assisinated a few years later. Still reasonably affordable. Soviet Union ruble I can't possibly think of a coin that's more leftist than this can be. Czechslovkia 500 koruns, commemorating Josef Lada My partial coin collection http://www.omnicoin.com/collection/gxseries My numismatics articles and collection: http://www.gxseries.com/numis/numis_index.htm Regularly updated at least once a month.

muddler Pillar of the Community United States 7265 Posts	Posted 01/07/2012 09:00 am Fuzzy, The 1964 d dime is highly prized by the average collector and is still possible to find in circulation. I wonder how many I have? Report this Post to the Staff
