This has got to be a record. The mint in Bern must be an uneventful place.


Perhaps this is why Albert Einstein got so bored working at the Swiss patent office that he invented the relativity theory.

One last Belgian silver 50 centimes coin to end the day with. 1886 was the very first year any Belgian coin was issued with inscription in Dutch (and the main reason why I hold on to such poor grade coin.)

I was told it was in a fire by the dealer. It was incredibly cheap and looks good in my second generation Whitman board (the kind with the blue felt).
