Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 06/15/2010 6:12 pm I have a fun one ! Does anyone have any info on this coin? metal composition, weight? here is one side I will post the other side in a while after a few responses. Ok well, according to my reference this coin is supposed to be bronze, but take a look. By the way, my scale says 10.1 grams Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 06/15/2010 6:41 pm Supposed to be bronze (I have no info on the weight). I feel like some kind of surprise is coming up. I don't see anything about errors/mules/patterns in Krause, so I'll just wait. Report this Post to the Staff

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 06/15/2010 7:21 pm I suppose its possible that someone tried to plate the coin, I was hoping to get a weight, my Kraus does not list a weight for the 10 Centimes. Report this Post to the Staff
maudry Pillar of the Community Luxembourg 588 Posts	Posted 06/25/2010 5:12 pm The weight should be the same than for the French 10 centimes coins of that period: exactly 10 grams. So you are pretty close to that. Report this Post to the Staff
