Sadagura 1773 2 para-3 kopeks. (with Moldavia and Wallachia)

Russo-Polish 1835 1.5 ruble-10 zlots (with Poland)
Some-Unique-Twist-Of-History---Dual-Denominations

And there is one more coin that I will never get in my life... that is the 1902 37.5 rubles-100 francs (with France), that is if I have 20,000USD to spare... or alternative I can get a copy coin somewhere fair cheap but haven't bothered up to now.

One of the rare times when dual currencies are used in here related to the Russian numismatic field - perhaps one of the early pioneers of the "Euro" [:p] Or perhaps copied from some of the earlier German states dual currencies which I am not too sure of.

Nevertheless, such coins are notoriously difficult to find in XF grade, forget UNC - that is out ot the budget.

What other dual denomination coins that you have?

How about the set of Rhodesian coins from 1966 - all of them (but the threepence) have predecimal and decimal denominations eg the halfcrown has 2/6 and 25c. There's the NZ 10 cents / 1 shilling of the 1960's as well.

Hey GX: those Moldavians are hard to get. I've been trying on ebay for a little while now, and the ones where you can still read the denominations or make out something on the coats of arms are either way out of my price range to start with or I get sniped.

You must notice something - there are the denominations of two different nations, which I believe is quite neat.

Sap - I believe you will need to be prepared to throw in at least 30AUD for an example like mine. That is how much I paid I think. Anything higher would require a fair bit more and I think I shall wait till I see an VF/XF, although that will be VERY expensive. One main reason is because the edge design is one of the most unique out of all of the Russian copper coinages. If I ever get a better one, you be the first notified if you are interested in the above example :)
