Re: NCLT Issues See QDB Market Report 12/08/2010 See Pitcock, M.: The Coins at the Back of the Book, The Numismatist, 86(8) 1371-75, Aug. 1973 Discussing "pseudo-coins", "Controversial Recent Issues", "supercrowns" distributed by, inter alia, Paramount International & Italcambio. Mr. Pitcock cites list of characteristics of "pseudocoins" (l) Metallic content of greater value than the denominational face value; (2) Very low mintage for both the proof and circulation issues, if any; (3) Coins only distributed at a price higher than face value,; (4) Metallic composition unsuitable for circulation use,; (5) Excessively large face value or physical size to facilitate general use; (6) Currency units not in general use; (7) Coins prohibited from or in fact not circulating in the country of issue; (8) Coins only distributed by a private agency. I would add, not found in circulated condition. |
