Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/26/2006 6:43 pm Wanted to see if I could get some of the more experienced world coin collectors to give me some help on identifying 2 coins. Coin #1: Coin #2: I hope the pictures come through ok. I have around 4-5 greek coins that I am trying to get dates and/or denominations on. If anybody knows a website that I can use to locate that information that would be great. If not I can get some scans of them and put them up also. Thank you all for your help.

Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/26/2006 7:06 pm Ok, #1 is Taiwan 1 yuan between 1981-1994. I just don't know how to read the specific year. Any help with the year would be greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 08/26/2006 9:29 pm The date on coin #1 is Year 73 of the Republic. (1984 AD) quote: I have around 4-5 greek coins that I am trying to get dates and/or denominations on. If anybody knows a website that I can use to locate that information that would be great. Do you mean ancient Greek, or modern Greek? For ancients, the Wildwinds site and the FORVM discussion board are the best Internet resources for identification. Edited to add AD date. 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.

Irishraider Pillar of the Community United States 1454 Posts	Posted 08/26/2006 9:35 pm Year 73? So that would make it 1984? Since the current government was 1911? I think this is how it works. Thanks sap. The greek coins are modern and I did find the date on those and I used a website to find out the denominations so all is good there. Thanks for the links though, that is helpful.

Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 08/27/2006 8:51 pm That always throws me, too, Andrew. Thankfully, most of the time the coin was only issued in one of the two "possible interpretations" of the date. 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
