Hmm...maybe...have you removed the links totally? Because I cannot find them any more! Yes I did. I´ll insert them once again when I get the other pages up to shape. Better to have them removed then having them looking odd while working with other pages.

If the 2 and a half cent ockupation coin from the Netherlands is from your collection, may I use that pic, when coming to that stage.

How much does the book cost in the states?

Thanks for noticing Jmd... I´ll have a look at that. I found links in the "Medeltid" and "Antiken" departement. Is that the same as you found!?

Kuhli - may I use your 2 kune pic? Also, may I include your real name into the sources/thanks to type of lines as I feel you have now given me so much info that I need to include you among the other sources

That is correct. The light iron issues is for the nominals 1, 2 and 5 öre.

Geoff - that explains a bit

Thanks for noticing Jmd... I´ll have a look at that.

Thank you Scott, that info is worth its weight in gold for me. As swedish is a small language there are very little good litterature on swedish about foreign currency so the "flaws" in my soviet collection was due to missing knowledge about thoose types. Visiting other swedish coin related webpages (via my links) you will see that pretty much most of them is about swedish coins (some in scandinavian aswell)... basicly the people that collects foreign coins are few over here and the knowledge about them follows that pattern. Im very much depending on "foreign sources" when searching info for my own areas of collection. Its probably not a coincident that Im the first swede finding this forum... there are not much other swedes searching for foreign coin sites. So thanks again for your information and Im happy for everything enw I may learn. The reason you do not find anniversery issues is that I have excluded them from my field of interest. I do how ever have some more coins but I will try to get them up at some point. I would of course appriceate any contribution of pics I can get although at the moment I must also try to fix my web-sites "flaws" before adding more and more...

Aye, thoose I am aware of. I came to a point when I saw my web-site grow in such a way that i needed new sub-folders thus I havent been able to redirect all pics yet but thanks for noticing.

That's because you spelt 'colour' the American way. No, not really, it's because there is a size limit so people don't go posting whoping great 1mb jpg's and using my precious bandwith. Two new things I learned today then. "Colour" and "images per post restrictions"

I saw you had put up a link on your webpage to mine. Very nice of you and I will make an effort this weekend to get my english web-pages up about swedish coins so that there is something for english speaker to read aswell. Hopefully you´ll find it usefull. Im also curious, how do you do that nice meny to your left, that without the scroller? Im using Dreamweaver myself when building mine but as I said somewhere else I merely know the basics.

Wasnt allowed to post 3 pics in one post

Examples, for thoose who wonders, of light colored iron, iron and bronze coins from my own collection...

Im glad to be of service The "light colored iron" coins where only made in 1942 as for ordinary iron and bronze there are some years where they made both of the types although the iron coins was mostly made around the world wars. 1950 for example is a year i recall when they made both types.

Tom - Thank you Geoff - You seem to understand the scandinavian languages very well Im beginning to become a bit interested how that could be? And yes they do not differ much from eichother although it may be hard to understand when spoken it is very similar in writing and if you learn about a few words that differs you mostly understand it perfectly good. When e-mailing other scandianavians I often use swedish and they reply in their own langauge. As for sedlar I believe you call it notes in english. Yoghurt - a whipped mixture of coins and notes.. yea I know Yoghurt... odd... but I didnt want anything ordinary like Berghs Coin and Note Board

Interesting I have merely heard of a 2 koruna coin from Croatia before. I guess there is a lot more I can learn about these types of coins. I will try to set up a registry of, first, WW2 coins on my website (primarly in swedish as Sweden often lack good litterature in swedish about foreign coinage, the litterature that exists is mostly on english) may I use pics from your collection in such a case?

I got this coin in my possession. Once bought it when I visited England. I know it is supposed to be from the normandic period, but could anyone give me more facts about it!? ...and no it is not an authetic coin but a fake, but I would still be very happy if someone could identify When its from or who´s face one can se on it

Two ships!? Yea why not, either that or two swanes

Thanks for the info mint_mark. I will keep tracking that KIAUTSCHOU" coin. The highest bid though is twice then yesterday, but it still merely 1/8th of what you valued it to in F-graded shape. So Ill continue to follow it up to see if I can make a bargaign here. And yes, it indead looks like we have a similar collecting interest.

Just curious as Im following an auction on a swedish site and Im really tempted to accuire this coin... What would the value of it be in england/germany!? Its a german colonial coin to be used in KIAUTSCHOU, 10 cent 1909

How would you describe the pattern on the left coin? What is that? Somekind of tulip?

Thanx kuhli I have never seen or heard of the above coins until now but now I shall try to have my eyes open when browsing actionssites.

Paypal you say? I´ll check it out sounds similar to the swedish Payson service.

One good news and one bad! This morning I manage to find out how to do a transfer ( reffered to as "Foreign payment") to your account from mine! Merely the transfer (not the cost for the book included) would cost me approx. £11.50 Thus now as I see it I got two optiones, either send you Euro in a ordinary mail, or try to do a so called "EU-transfer" in such a case I would need your banks Bank Identifer Code (BIC) aswell as your accounts IBAN code which my Bank says merely your Bank can render, probably on their web-site. Anyway perhaps we can continue the discussion via e-mail.
