So, I'm quite new and inexperienced at this, as I just started collecting last September, and I focused on XX century coins… Mainly because of their availability in flea markets, where I found most of my collection.
Last week, I saw a seller with a shoebox full of assorted coins, selling them a 0.30 €/piece, or 5 € /25 pieces. So, I took 25 of them. Being a newbie in the field, I go by gut and looks, so I took 25 of the ones that looked exotic and foreign, and this one was among them.
As I said, I'm not an expert by any metric, but its weight is quite right (about 2.88g), it is the exact size as it is reported in Numista's catalog (23mm) and it does sound and look like silver. Even though it's in perfect condition for a 700+ years coin (you can see all the details on the crown, for example), doesn't look like a replica or fake to me (no visible seam on the edge, no fantasy marks or deformities…). Anything I am missing, or I hit the jackpot with this one?
Also, I am a little bit lost between the full and the ½ croat (N#125002). As far as I can tell, there's no face value on those coins, I am getting this right? The only way to set them apart is by weight?
