I searched for a coin under several values, (Date/denomination), (Key words), (weight, Diameter, metal) nothing showed up. I looked thru notgeld for WW1 and found nothing. But after I submitted it for addition, it was rejected and said it was already there, IN FRENCH. Now how am I suppose to find a coin in french.

None of the key words I search for come up. Yes it is there, BUT..............................................be serious. We need a common search engine if you expect me to find a coin that is listed totally in another language.

This is the link to the French coin, Don't understand it: https://fr.numista.com/catalogue/pieces9868.html
In the link just change the fr to en to get the English page. 8)

At top of the page, switch language to English and you'll get the english content.

Search works fine with key words, like value and part of the lettering: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=2+kopecks+OBERBEFEHLSHABERS&ct=coin&im1=&im2=&tb=y&tc=y&tn=y&tp=y&tt=y&cat=y&ru=&ca=3&no=&v=&i=&b=&d=&u=&a=&dg=&m=&f=&t=&w=&mt=&g=&se=&c=&wi=&sw=

or like value and date:

Also, I put the first word GEBIET in a search and it found it straight away,
among the five results. Not sure what you put in the search. 8)

I put in all the words on the Obverse. Not just one word. Also the reverse.

Thank you for your help
A few words are better then a lot because every error you make will most likely result in no hits.
