Hello everyone.....
I hope everyone is doing well. My dad was just taken for surgery. They are going to see if they can take the stones out of his kidneys because they keep causing infections. If they are unable to get them they are going to replace the stints.
Obviously we are hoping they get them.
It’s another #worldcoinwednesday my friends. And today we are going back in time over 100 years ago. We are taking a flight to Germany, it was known as King of Prussia then.
The coin is a 1907 silver 5 mark. It is in very nice condition, my opinion is a medium AU. Probably in the range of AU52 maybe an AU55.
