1970 Sudan Coins

3 posts • viewed 120 times

Most coins found from Sudan in 1970 come from the proof sets of that year. However, there are non-proof versions of some of the coins, notably the 5 Milliemes, 10 Milliemes, 2 Qirsh, and 10 Qirsh. There are enough differences between these proof and non-proof versions that Krause gave them different numbers (41.1, 41.2, etc.).

 

However, the 1 Millieme coin is also listed as available in proof and non-proof versions, but without a different Krause number. I have been searching for a non-proof version for several years without success, yet a significant percentage of Numista users are shown owning it. I sent a message to the referee of those coins (maurilp04) asking about this, but haven't gotten a response.

 

I was wondering if it was possible for those people claiming to have the non-proof Sudan 1970 1 Millieme to be polled to clarify if they do actually have a proof version instead of the non-proof version as indicated. (A similar technique was used to resolve a discrepancy with the Bolivia Pesos in the years 1968-1980 where the Krause book differed from the actual mint records.) Alternatively, seeing photos of both the proof and non-proof version would help settle if I need to bother continuing my search.

 

Thanks.

Schön only lists the proof versions.

 

(I just submitted a change request to add this information to the coin page.)

(It saves time for other people if you list the Numista page in queries. Help us to help you.)

Thank you for checking the Schön catalog, as I don't have a copy of that. That will likely reduce my search list by one!

 

And I did know about including a link to the page, but blanked on doing it. Sorry. 😓
