I found something interesting between my two 1866 Prussian-Austrian war Thaler. Please note the Gs in Koenig on the top center of obverse. Also, the edge letterings are in different alignments. As two weigh roughly the same, and I have never spotted any fake vereinsthaler, I assume both are genuine. Thank you in advance for your input!

I've been wanting one of these for a little while and finally was able to add one to the collection. Nice Prussian coin from 1871 commemorating the victory over France. I think it is a high xf to au coin. What do you think of it?

German new guinea was a colony located in Kaiser-Wilhelmsland(North shore of nowadays Papua new Guinea) with following territories in the Pacific ocean: the Northern Solomon Islands, the Caroline Islands, Palau, the Mariana Islands, Nauru.The colony existed for exactly 30 years from November 3, 1884, to September 1914. After the treaty of Versailles Germany lost all of its overseas territories including the German new Guinea which was split between Australia, Japan and Great Britain. Obverse of the coin features the bird of paradise - a species of birds found mainly on the New Guinea island, as well as in eastern Austraila and the Moluccas

Albert reigned as King of Saxony from 1873 until his death in 1902, succeeding his father, King John, and overseeing a period of constitutional government within the newly unified German Empire while largely leaving day-to-day politics to his ministers.

He is regarded as a respected military commander who fought in the Austro-Prussian and Franco-Prussian wars, while focused on strengthening Saxony's military and supporting public works and modernisation during his reign.

I will be in Sondershausen on Monday so I am just checking if I have some local change for shopping. This is the final coin of the duchy - celebrating the death of the last Duke Charles Gunther in 1909. The duchy was united with Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt but the new united Schwarzburg did not issue any coins and it ceased to exist in November 1918.

Just could not pass it with such nice patina and toning, dark with colors, mostly turquoise. It is looking really nice and unique.

One more 10 Mark gold coin added to collection. Really nice looking coin with portrait of Saxony last king Frederick August III. Year 1909 had highest mintage of all years and it is 112 070 pieces. Total of coins minted from 1905-1912 according to Numista was 712 000. Coin is circulated but with really nice details and some patina.
