DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 03:42 am I don't usually find coins like this in bargain bins, and I this one has some character. It's slightly thinner on one side, which might explain the loss of detail. Doing a little research and judging by the details, it appears to be Augustus III of Poland-Lithuania. Any idea as to denomination? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

jlcarvoeiro Valued Member Portugal 130 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 04:27 am I think it´s a Tympf (18 Groszy) Billion from Augustus III of Poland (Large Bust). It´s worth about 10 Dollars. Report this Post to the Staff
DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 04:56 am It can't be an 18 groszy because they were larger and silver. I have one. This coin is a 1754H: - solidus (if it's visibly smaller than a US cent), or - grosz (if it's the same size as an US cent) Both had the same designs.

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 1:33 pm DL, thanks for the info! This coin is 21mm in diameter and 3.3gr, so I'd say that's a Grosz. Report this Post to the Staff
DagonX Valued Member Poland 392 Posts	Posted 04/10/2009 1:37 pm In my opinion it's grosz (solidus was smaller - and only head of August III was at the coin, but here we have bigger portrait). jlcarvoeiro, in 1754 tymph wasn't minted Report this Post to the Staff
