X2an Pillar of the Community Sweden 1078 Posts	Posted 12/29/2015 3:00 pm Interesting - this is a Finnish 2 Cent piece. These weren't minted for circulation and were only issued for mint sets. I also think your coin has some signs of a late die stage (rays next to the '2' around the edge). I have some 20c pieces with this particular look. Report this Post to the Staff
Dagaz Valued Member Slovenia 459 Posts	Posted 12/30/2015 03:01 am Wow, nice! Also look for new Belgium designs (of 2014 and 2015) - all I've seen so far have some degree of greased die, most notably at mintmasters mark (cat). Will post pictures someday. Report this Post to the Staff
