Croatia, Mint Set

These four coins were issued in Israel in the 1960s and 1970s. They are no longer valid for use, but are an important part of their numismatic history. They are the 1, 5, 10 and 25 Agorot and are in uncirculated condition. Please remember that they are 40-50 years old and not many were put aside at the time. We think that at just £3.50 they are excellent value and for sure not easy to find.

In 2003 the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia became the Union of Serbia and Montenegro, though the latter gained its own independence 4 years later in 2006. Since then the National Bank of Serbia has been issuing its own currency, so now we can offer you this set of 3 coins. The 1, 2, and 5 dinar coins are written in both Cyrillic and Latin text, all showing the country’s Coat of Arms on the obverse. The reverse sides of each coin show the National Bank building, the Monasteries of Gračanica, and Krušedol respectively.

With the fall of Communism in Poland in 1989 and the hyperinflation that set in during 1990, the country’s currency had to be re-issued. At the time inflation soared to 567% (we think we have it bad!!) and the zloty fell to 16,862 to our UK pound. Now we can offer a set of 7 of these coins that were issued for one year only. The lower denominations (1, 2 and 5 zloty) are made of aluminium, while the 10 zloty comes in brass and the 50, 20 and 100 are copper-nickel.
