ElleKitty Pillar of the Community United States 819 Posts	Posted 08/19/2007 2:09 pm Yesterday at my weekly jaunt to the coin shoppe, I picked up a nice trio of coins from the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek. They include a sixpence of 1893, a shilling of 1894, and a 2 1/2 shilling (Half crown) of 1896. All coins are silver, bearing the image of Paul Kruger on the front. The coins grade F-VF, depending on the actual coin. I put a photo of the half crown into my image gallery. OBV: http://www.coincommunity.org/galler...hp?pos=-8260 REV: http://www.coincommunity.org/galler...hp?pos=-8259 Unfortunately, I don't have a Krause for the 1800s. :( Can someone give me the information for these little guys? They're very interesting coins, from an interesting period of South African history. Report this Post to the Staff
