Hello.  You need to provide links to the items you're questioning.

My bad, sorry about that.

No exactly duplicates but pages should probably be merged by adding the 1977 to the 1978/1981 one.

Thanks for the speedy responses. 

Anthony

One is Bronze and the other is brass. That is why they are separate pages.

Do you know of any other way to tell the difference besides the color?

Anthony

Possibly with the weight, however the individual that added the bronze one did not include the weight. And none of the numerous individuals that have marked this in their collections have been kind enough to provide it.

 

Just a FYI, for anyone reading this that doesn’t know. Please check your “contribute” link and see what Coins, Banknotes or Exonumia in your collection has missing information that would benefit other collectors on Numista. Here is the link.

Ok, well I'll weigh the one I have and if it's different than the one made from brass I'll update the bronze piece…unless someone believes there are even more varieties/metal composition.

Anthony

*Update* mine weighed 26.2 grams, I'm going to assume it's the brass variety since it would be logical the bronze would be much heavier. Thanks everyone!

I will close this due to lack of info, but my feeling would be that these are duplicates after all, just people “guessed” the metal.

I was beginning to think the same thing. Appreciate it!
