DL20K Pillar of the Community Poland 3201 Posts	Posted 01/18/2010 11:09 am The first one may be a coin of Ferdinand IV of Naples (?). The fourth one is certainly a Russian kopek from the first half of the 18th century. These are usually called kopeks of Peter the Great (although I don't know if they were minted only during his reign), and can be dated based on the lettering below the denomination. The fifth one looks like a Portuguese copper 5/10/20 reis, depending on the size, the date should be betwen "PORTUGALIAE" and "REGINA" (the scan has this part cut off).

pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 01/18/2010 8:09 pm Third one looks like a German city-state coin, but I can't see it well enough to ID it. The monogram should be obvious to someone who knows these, but ... I'm not that guy! Report this Post to the Staff

KM/C# 43, CV $7 in VG; with the wear and the huge chunk missing, I doubt this would be worth over a dollar. #2: German state of Hesse-Cassel, 4 heller I believe, either 1774, 1778 or 1782; I'd lead towards 1782. All dates CV $3 in VG; this is near-basal state. #3: German state of the Arhbishopric of Trier, 4 pfennig 1748. KM# 259, CV $5 in VG. #4: What DL20K said: It's an old Russian kopek. #5: Portugal, as DL20K said. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

DCH Pillar of the Community United States 645 Posts	Posted 01/19/2010 7:37 pm Look at the shield on #2, it looks like Wilhelm IX to me. Friedrich II used a slightly different design. http://www.rondomons.nl/vergroot.ph...enheight=600 http://www.dnecoins.com/pics/24323.jpg What's the diameter? Report this Post to the Staff
