My microscope couldn't fit the entire coin, but I think I got enough of them to determine if they are real. 1753 Zeeland Duit KM 152.3 3.0g 22mm 1756 West-Friesland Duit KM 131 3.2g 22mm 1780 Holland Duit KM 70 3.3g 22mm 1786 Utrect Duit KM 111.1 3.0g 22mm 1790 Gelderland Duit KM 50.2 3.1g 22mm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34431 Posts	Posted 04/07/2016 05:42 am I see nothing that suggests that these are fakes. The surfaces are a little granular, but just look like honest wear. I assume you've confirmed that they don't attract a magnet and that there isn't a parting line along the edges? Nice group of duits.

mahgobbi Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 04/07/2016 11:35 am Thanks for the input. The are not magnetic and the edges look good. The surfaces aren't really that granular...the microscope magnification makes them look much worse than they are. Any thoughts on value? The Holland coin has better detail than most examples I've seen. Report this Post to the Staff
