[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9493253, member: 2844"]Just to be clear, no Gypsy group ever had their own coins. They used the coins they came across, usually of their (main) country of residence. And as I said, I am doubtful this lovely belt ever had a Gypsy connection. European Roma, Sinti, Calo, etc buy gold, because it is regarded as a safe investment. The value of OPs belt was in the entire belt, not in the coins. So if you want to find out about your coins, why not post your own thread?:)[/QUOTE]
