One iron, and one zinc... I always have trouble with the zinc.

This little chunk of junk is the rarer date of the 2-year series, 1919:
Two-Very-Poor-Metal-Coins

And this zinc is still a bit silvery:
Two-Very-Poor-Metal-Coins

It never photographs well... but... compare it to this "typical" black zinc coin and there is a difference:

These ones are tough!

The first just looks a little worn... just on one of those fancy designs by the 1. Probably around AU-58.

Now, no matter how much I look for wear on the second one... I can't find it. Plus it still is the original colour. Looks around MS-62 or 63.

Are they both supposed to have dots on them? The first one on the South East side of the X. And the second in the word Nederland, between L and A?
