Goose,
    If you look closely you can see it is actually a shattered die coin. I have blow-ups of all the die cracks.

Beautiful coins, Fred.

You have me drooling on my keyboard. LOL
I don't think I have any of those in my collection.
My favourite is the King Edward Island One Cent.

There must be some small mistake as there is "1929 Danzig" note, but no Danzig coin above or below it.  :)

DL,
    Oops, you are correct. I changed it. I accidentally posted the Wisman under Mecklenburg Schwerin coin instead of the Danzig coin
Thanks for pointing this out.

No problem.

By the way, beware of cheapo Danzig bronze coin copies. I know there are a lot of them - the 1 and 2 pfennig fakes appeared fairly recently..  >:(

How does one spot a fake?

The main differences seem to be the wrong weight, wrong thickness and die chips in field on the fakes.
