Comments

Pierścionki z datą 1923 zostały wybite w dwóch różnych wykończeniach brązu: Hern#S1 (czarny) i Hern#S2 (czerwony). Poczerniałe wykończenie zostało stworzone w celu odróżnienia od obecnych złotych monet i obie odmiany są uwzględnione w całkowitym nakładzie z 1923 roku.Automatically translated
