Hi !
I have 3 francs from 1918, just not sure which one to keep.
The left one or the middle one.
Left has nice toning, middle one looks high quality too.
Thanks for sharing your opinion !

Even if the middle one has the sharpest details, I'd probably keep the first one from the left because it has a pretty nice toning. I actually own a 1918 franc as well and it has a beautiful toning on it, so that's why I'll go with that one. :)
Hi,

can't say.... try to take the images under the same light and angle. Here everything is misleading because non respect of that!

​Hey Ole,
I'll try to make better pics tomorrow in daylight.
Left and middle are both very nice coins, with the middle one having some extra metal near B and TE of LIBERTE, while the left one has, beside the toning, the imprints of the edge reeding clearly visible in the rim. (I'm hoping I'm explaining myself okay). So it's an extremely difficult choice, especially with values for different grades being very different.
I'd give the toned one around 60, and the middle one around 55...

All are similar, but maybe that's because of the photos... I'd go for left though.
Hard to tell with the photos but I'd say either middle or left.

Are you selling the others?​

I put the black one in my collection, here are some daylight pics of the other 2 :


These are available for swap (or other proposition ).
Kind regards,

Where did you get them from?
Also they're silver I guess?

I got them from a family member who stopped collecting.
Still over 5 kilos (non silver coins) to organize...
