UNUSUAL COIN
Dear Anno Shirley,—l have a coin smaller than a threepenny piece, dated 1902. It has on one side a man with a flowing robe, whom ] presume would be Saint George slaying the dragon, as there appears to be a fearsome-looking creature at the hooves of his mount. The other side consists of a picture of the late King George's head, the date and the words, "1 am of one crown, Lauer Nuremberg, Made in Germany." T wonder if any reader could give me some information about the origin and value (if any) of this coin.—Thanking you verv much. Joan Sehwarz.
