mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1888 Posts	Posted 12/21/2016 2:00 pm Being an enthusiastic collector of world minors by date and mint, I am just drooling over that find. Congratulations! Please add me to your list of potential customers if you decide to turn loose any of that. It does seem like there were wartime connections there. Similar but much smaller lots appear frequently in dealers' foreign 'junk' boxes in the USA, obviously having been brought back from overseas deployments. Report this Post to the Staff
svnhson Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 12/21/2016 2:09 pm Nice lot! It's interesting to see those Second Empire French coins turn up in a lot of mostly German stuff-maybe they were brought to Germany by a soldier after the Franco-Prussian War? Report this Post to the Staff

svnhson Valued Member United States 102 Posts	Posted 12/21/2016 2:18 pm On second glance your lot also reminds me of one I pick over at my local coin shop from time to time. It was from an old collection, and is a similar mix of dates (from 1700s Austria, Bavaria, and Rostock (1760, the oldest German date in the lot) to Nazi). I've scored a couple nice German States coins from that collection. Yours actually looks a lot better, though- nice variety of large silvers and World in particular. Great find!
