poor_red_neck New Member United States 27 Posts	Posted 05/05/2012 01:45 am Sorry, not enough characters in the title to describe what I'm talking about. 2012 Standard Catalog of World Coins. 1925 Mexican 10 Centavos. The catalog lists three different 1925 "versions." I don't know if it means mint marks or not. The question is about 1925. What do the /15 & /3 mean? Here's the picture from the catalog: Here's the coin in question. It has an "M" mark at the bottom of the 10, inbetween the 1 and 0 : * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by poor_red_neck 05/05/2012 02:03 am Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 05/05/2012 02:08 am the 1925/15 probably means that the original coin die for a 1915, and it was restamped to make a 1925. That would mean 1925 over 1915, or 1925/15. The other notations should have the same meaning. Report this Post to the Staff

Look closely at the date numerals - on the overdates there should be visible remnants of either a "1" beneath the 2 or a "3" beneath the 5. I can't see anything there in your pics, but a higher res picture of just the date area might be helpful. 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
