Angielczyk Valued Member Israel 423 Posts	Posted 01/16/2008 08:01 am There are many FAO coins that have odd shapes and sizes. One of my favourites is this coin from Tonga which exists in both cupro-nickel and silver proof. Image: tongaobv.jpg 48.23 KB Image: tongarev.jpg 48.84 KB Report this Post to the Staff
chrisild Pillar of the Community Germany 1238 Posts	Posted 01/16/2008 10:09 am The Edgar Degas coins (France 2007) have a similar shape: (Obv) http://boutique.monnaiedeparis.fr/i...45870000.jpg (Rev) http://boutique.monnaiedeparis.fr/i...45870000.jpg The coin was also issued in a (non-colored) gold version. And when it comes to pieces with odd shapes, well, there is the Somali "guitar" series: http://www.worldcoins.ws/shop/files/setgitar.jpg Then there is the Isle of Man's triangular coin: http://www.pobjoy.com/ukworld/shopi..._779x521.jpg In my opinion, they are "sort-of-coins" rather than coins (especially the pieces "from" Somalia), but why not collect them ...

Dark Sider New Member United States 37 Posts	Posted 01/23/2008 5:27 pm India has a number of odd shapes in their coins. The two paise coins are scalloped the three paise coins are hexagonal the five paise coins are square and the ten paise coins are a larger scalloped coin. The old pice coins had large holes in the center and were often used as washers. Report this Post to the Staff
