giljan Valued Member Norway 375 Posts	Posted 12/14/2025 06:53 am 1558 I have collected the Lithuanian half groats for some years and many of them I found at coin dealers in Poland when I travelled there a few times. Report this Post to the Staff
tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7969 Posts	Posted 12/14/2025 07:25 am 1558 It's amazing that there is such a good supply of these in nice grades. Though I think the nice ones are increasingly getting slabbed. Mine are from the large Polish auction houses (mostly WCN) Edited by tdziemia 12/14/2025 07:26 am Report this Post to the Staff
jbuck Moderator United States 190340 Posts	Posted 12/14/2025 12:48 pm Looking good this weekend! I ask, please include the date somewhere in your posts. I added to the last two, but that is for my own use and not necessarily an example. The dates in text make it easier when I review to ensure sure we are hitting all the rights ones on or near (for catch-ups) the right day.
