Finland = Tasvalta Austria = Osterreich Hungary = Magyar Koztatsasag Switzerland = Helvetia Ireland = Eire What countries do you find the most confusing by coin ID? Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 05/13/2021 04:14 am If you have been collecting World coins for decades, you get to learn all of each country's alternative names, where they are lodged in your easy recall memory, including states that no longer exist. On line NGC World Coin Values can be of great assistance, if you are still learning. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34425 Posts	Posted 05/13/2021 07:33 am @drowning, another great resource is the phone app called "Coinoscope". I have no affiliation with this whoever makes this, but find it very helpful as a first-pass filter on identifying world coins, especially those from the 20th and 21st Centuries.

And I know a guy who helped make it. The creator lives in Europe. My friend lives out here in the US. The creator is always updating and adding coins. Report this Post to the Staff
