Silver Saturday

[trout]

don't go much on the granny bait sorry

Watyamean Granny bait :laugh2:
I am still guilty of buying these , BUT only the special ones like this one and the 1oz MOR Silver coin in the high relief :good:
That is the NICE VC coin anyway.
Shame about the "Milk Spots" otherwise I think this would have graded MS70 instead of MS69 :dash1:

A couple of coins that are not so pretty, but silver none the less.

1942 Netherlands East Indies, One Tenth Gulden.


1930 Panama, One Tenth Balboa.

For sure. I wonder why they didn't do the notes as a consecutive run.
Seems strange having the same number on more than one note. Not that it really matters that much, just wondering.

I wonder why they didn't do the notes as a consecutive run.

I think it was just to represent the larger (back) dollar note shrinking over time to the smaller dollar coin.
