By using electronic banking I realize that it is not easy to get change and even less chances to find "funny" money. Until I can figure out more convenient ways to live on cash I will still be in the vaults.
This is a Czech Republic coin not to be confused with a Czechoslovakia or a Republic of Slovakia coin. It is sad to see break ups but that means twice as many coins for the kids.

I have yet to confirm this but it makes sense.
Do you have coin from the Czech Republic and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.
I've got a couple of these and noticed the apparent "doubling" in the letters also.

ReplyDeleteYes, at first I thought it was true doubling but then when I other coins I realized it is just part of the design.
I have a coin that had the words

If you can place a picture online somewhere and copy & paste a link here.
