Unlisted Pattern

I have yet been lucky enough to purchase another new very rare unlisted (soon to be listed) pattern from a Belgian auction. Not yet graded, but similar to the 1906 20 Centimes Pattern with unpunched hole in aluminum-bronze that I have listed in Part 2 of my Belgian Congo Collection. This piece is a 1911 5 Cetimes pattern with unpunched hole in aluminum-bronze (or brass).

Unreported in Dupriez or Bogaert, 2.53 g, 19 mm.

ex. Veilinghuis Eeckhout-Aalst, May 7, 2011, Lot 148.

I love finding new unknown items for this growing and incredible collection.

I was told that a major coin that I need for this collection is coming to auction soon. Anyone want to donate any large sums of money so I can add it to my collection? It's gonna be quite expensive and I'm poor!
