3 posts
Hi,
Help please to identify this coin 5 Bolívares 1989 Y# 53a


Maybe someone can give some pics for comparison of both subtypes.
Hello,

You will find good description there https://sites.google.com/site/coinvarietiescollection/home/south-america/venezuela (good place for variants by Ole, see also Cobra's http://monnaiesetvarietes.esy.es/)

Mine are here, the difference is quite obvious:


I just asked the addition to the Numista sheet. Depending on the referee it will be there soon.

André, thanks! Nice work!

But I think there is a mistake in Numista comments.

My coin is like your right coin on your pics.
Judging by COBRA/Ole‘s picture, it is #53a.1 (large letters on obverse, incuse motto on ribbon,...). But judging by upper 3 text lines in the comment, it is #53a.2

I don't know who is right. And I ask to correct this mistake in Numista comment.
