I cannot see the 01/99, but I'll assume it's the documented overdate. This one has a modest premium Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 09/10/2011 12:34 pm Thanks...this is another case of a coin with a very small date. At coin shows here, there often isn't enough light to see such small details. So I'll pick up anything that shows something interesting in the date area, to bring home and study. I often luck out that way. Report this Post to the Staff

DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 09/13/2011 6:50 pm Thanks--and yes, I think I've developed a talent for finding overdates. These coins must be more common in Europe, so there must be some overdates to find. Report this Post to the Staff
Kingz Pillar of the Community Netherlands 626 Posts	Posted 09/13/2011 7:01 pm ooh yes there should be a lot of them here, from a lot of different country's. Problem is to find them, but it could be a nice side topic to collect with a nice variety! Although ofcourse not strangely enough Belgium is probably on the top of that list lolzz Must search a little bit better in the weekend maybe, when I have more time.. and will post them here Report this Post to the Staff

If you're interested in finding overdates, Belgium produced many, the Netherlands a few, and many from Sweden. I have studied the catalogs and made a list of what to look for. It's easier to find overdates if you look for specific coins. Report this Post to the Staff
