| 2009-11-20 | Grace | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Hallo Brad, Thank you for your accuracy. I am collecting coins already for more than 50 years, not for the value but because I liked them. From the former Dutch East Indies, Dutch New Guinea, Holland,germany in particular and just from diff. countries. The last 20 years I didn't do anything with them any more. My children are not interested, so I think it is time to sell them off. I thank you so much for your help, and probably I need your expertise very soon again. Thank you also for the tips, where I have to look as well. Kind regards, Grace |

| 2009-11-18 | sam | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | thank you for not only the information you provided me about these coins, but also for the quickness in your answer.I would have thought that the older one would be worth more, it is silver, not bronze, or aluminum bronze, and it has L 2 AT THE BOTTOM OF COIN. I WILL POST A FOLLOW UP QUESTION. I again thank you. sam |

I appreciate the info and will look up the world catalogue you mentioned. The necklace is very sentimental for me and the value of the coin is not important. I do however have other coins I'll be researching, and I did find your site interesting Brad. Thank you. |
