Please add a date line for the standard version of the coin. It has a mintage of 50,000 pieces and depicts the mintmastermark ‘raven’. The coin page currently only lists the BU version.

And then there is the ‘First Day Issue’, with the mintage still to be determined…

So you have 1 coin, 3 year lines:

Unc - 50.000

'First Days Unc - To be determined

BU - 12.500

Or should you have only 1 line and put the seperate issues in the comments field?

There are many, many discussions about this…

When there is only one year it doesn't matter.

When it's a coin that has been issued for several years in row (or decades) the many different yearlines make for a messy clutter and inflate your coin page.

Only one solution: invent a time machine, go back to the time I started collecting and warn myself to steer clear of all the special editions and only collect circulating currency 😉

Depends on if you are a package or a coin collector.

Eurgh using UNC and BU. So BU should be higher quality as UNC is circulation quality.

I look forward to the date line being added for the UNC version.

We have separate lines for different qualities.

In the Dutch catalog, there are no separate lines for first strike coins.

Don't underestimate. It took Piet Mondriaan a significant part of his career to arrive at an utter simplification of landscape painting (a tree in a field):
