Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 03/03/2016 8:33 pm Hi. I was just informed about this thread. I think that I can help kick the can down the road a smidge. I present for your inspection a 1493 half groschen from the archbishopric of Mainz. The attribution is Lev I-303. The obv inscription is BERT+ARCH+IPS+PRINC+ELE and the rev inscription is S°PET°A-POST°1&93 (where the ampersand is a Gothic number 4). I was pretty psyched to pick up this coin as it is somewhat rare. The strike is very uneven, but there was enough detail that I decided to jump on it.

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 03/04/2016 6:16 pm I just realized that it wasn't time for 1493 yet. The thread skipped 2009! Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 187446 Posts	Posted 03/05/2016 11:53 pm 2009 was not missed, it is missing! So is 2008. This is why I hate off-site image hosting. Anyway, I have removed the 2009 posts. Sorry, we cannot just go back like that. But, I have graciously taken your images and put them in place of the missing photos... https://goccf.com/t/86101#707705 Now we can move along. Well, after Petrus posts the 1492. If anyone posts a 1491 before Petrus posts then it might just disappear.
