Title: French & Swiss Gold Coins . . . Post by: Neil on December 21, 2009, 08:47:50 PM Not detecting finds, but you never know as they used to circulate over here as well.
Couple of gold coins from my collection I have come across recently. The first is an 1860 Five Franc from France bearing the head of Napoleon III - unfortunately someones put a hole in it. Next is a Swiss 10 France dated 1915 in perfect condition. I believe it was minted in Bergen. What a shame that we no longer circulate gold coinage - I suppose people would just stock pile them though. As usual if anyone wants to sell any gold coins from any countries - I am always interested regardless of condition. A half sov I had a while ago off a DW member even looked like it had been chewed by a cow! ;D Cheers Neil Title: Re: French & Swiss Gold Coins . . .
