I cannot distinguish the different between the variaties. Which versions are this?

 

N#1818 and work on it, observe your coins and the documentation provided….

That’s the problem. After the explanation I still don’t know the version(s).

The top coin looks like gapped edge. Can't see the edge of the bottom coin.

Here is my original documentation, somebody changed it for translation purposes, I assume, but not I….

Hi Ole,
thanks for your great work. I really enjoy using your information.
After years of comparing the 5 Piastre 1967, I'm actually not sure whether the version with a smooth rim actually exists. I have never seen a version in UNC or XF. All coins with ‘smooth edge’ that I have received had small indications of the milling somewhere on the edge.
Do you have a coin in UNC or XF? 
Could I be right?
Many thanks in advance?
Rupert

 

(Additional note: For the Tunisian 5 Dinar 1423 (2002) I am more than 95% sure that the version with "plain stars" does not exist. These are versions with normal stars - just worn).

You might very well be right, to file down an edge is easily done, when you have the proper machinery at your disposal! 

 

Mine is VF, I think, and all measurements are inside the limits: Changed from XF to VF.

Thanks for the quick reply Ole.

 

As for the Egyptian coin, I'm still not sure whether this version exists or not. It's interesting that you don't rule out the possibility that the coin with the smooth edge doesn't exist.

 

But what I have learnt over the years. It is relatively easy to introduce a new variant in the catalogue or Numista, but it is almost impossible to delete incorrect versions. (like the Tunisian one I am sure of ... even if many have the coin ...)

Here is my coin:

Hi Ole,

from the photo I would say the coin is VF only.

Unfortunately, with the resolution and your special camera technique, it is not possible to see whether there are any indications of a milled edge. Given the degree of condition, I could imagine that the edge is worn.

But from a distance, that's just speculation ...

Here are the macro images:

Thank you.

I am concerned that the coins with a smooth edge do not appear to have any rippling on the outside of the upper side either. Am I seeing this correctly?

Yes, you're seeing that correctly.

Hi Ole, meanwhile Natko and I checked if a plain edge variant exist. We did not find any proof. Could you please check your example 360° if it has any traces of milling. Thank you.

It has NO traces left, but as I have repeated several times, it might have manipulated! 

 

I've seen that on Polish  coins as well.
