1 Cent - George V 1925


Description : 1 Cent 1925
Mintage : 2,500,000
Country : Hong Kong

One of my favorites coin, Because this was my third precious coin. I bought them in 2011, about in April. I've got to celebrate this 1st anniversary coin of mine. Well, They were in ugly and many dents at all. But, i'm really care and i cleaned this coin. One of the annoying problem of this coin is a green spot in obverse upper "ONE" letter. And, the face or bust of George V is litle bit dissapeared of time. I still love this coin. The values of this coin around $5 in VG.

50 Centavos 1917 S

Mintage : 674,000
Country : Philippines

Well, The1st word on your mid is a "What a bad cropped photo", i think. Ok,you're right. i'm not master in Editing photos, but at least i can make my photos on this blog are lookable. Looks like this coin has decreasing size from 1907. You can take a look at the 1st mint 1903. It has 0.9000 silver fine, 13.47 grams. Since the 2nd version has minted, it's gone to be 10 grams and 0,7500 silver fine. What a shame. Although the size was reduced, it's not make me mad and sad, it is so make me lucky and happy instead. Why?, because is this the one of the rariest coin in this version. I washed this coin clearly and put it in self-adhesive coin holder. You can see the little green spot in obverse, behind the lady. And some dim in Reverse. You can buy this coin on ebay if you get lucky. Happy Collecting! :)

1 Hryvnia 2010 - Vladimir V.



Description : 1 Hryvnia 2010
Mintage : N/A
Country : Ukraine 

Well, if you see this coin. What do you think?. How much you'll rate them?. A 10 stars or 5 stars?. I doubt it. That's because the people must have their judge for anything. You have no right for obligate someone to judge or appreciate the thing, by myself, i see it's proper to get 7 stars. (DON'T ASK!). This coin is from Ukraine. What's your opinion about his new-indepence cointry?. Ukraina is a country in Central and Eastern Europe. It has an area of 603,628 km², making it the second largest contiguous country on the European continent, after Russia. I hope the Ukrainian people enjoyed and be more patiently with their currency, it's not an insult. Because, you know the rate 1 UAH  = 0.10 USD Approx.  Even though the IDR is more low than UAH. 1 UAH = 1.110 IDR. How Embarassing. Okay, that's it about my post. See ya next time!!
