Davidson Valued Member Nauru 65 Posts	Posted 09/25/2008 11:07 pm I have in my collection a Republic of Italiana coin that has a word written near on the rim (see where I have circled) Can any body help what the would is? There is also an 'A' on the neck of the effigy. Should an 'A' be there?. The image is below- http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...italiana.jpg target _blank rel nofollow coinitaliana.jpg /a br / 52.39 KB" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'> Just adding the image of the reverse coin. Please note I've re examined the coin for the 'A' after cleaning the surface and also my scanner and found that there is no 'A' visible. The appearance of the 'A' in the first image I sent could be cause of lighting plus unclean scanner etc etc. Sorry about that. http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...lianarev.jpg target _blank rel nofollow coinitalianarev.jpg /a br / 57.23 nbsp KB" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'> Edited by Davidson 09/29/2008 9:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff

rosso_rubino Valued Member Italy 244 Posts	Posted 09/26/2008 05:04 am yes, the name is the coin designer, while the A should not be there, and I don't know about italian 200 Lire w/ this variation, anyway I'll check better since there are many variations in the 200 Lire coins. Could you also let me know the coin year, or put online the picture of the reverse side ? Report this Post to the Staff
