David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1617 Posts	Posted 08/21/2022 04:15 am Hi all, I have a coin which at first inspection I thought was a 1/3 Grosza from Gubin mint. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces118084.html Upon further inspection the profile of Augustus III is not the same and is much more similar to to a 1 Grosza from the Grünthal mint except the bust is larger. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces31087.html I also cannot see coin wear accounting for 5mm in diameter. Am not sure how much variation there is in the profiles etc. of the 1/3 Grosza. Any help appreciated. Thanks Diam. = 14.5mm Report this Post to the Staff

Yours might have a B or an R there? And yes, there is a lot of variation in the bust. Edited by tdziemia 08/21/2022 1:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I wonder which is right? 15mm is 1/3 Grosza according to Numista. Report this Post to the Staff
