Regandon,
  What has British coinage got to do with an Estonian medal-coin?

Regandon,
  I've been collecting British coins for just over 20 years.

I have got most reigns since King Henry VIII of England represented with at least 1 coin.

Here's something that will interest you; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estonian_kroon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estonian_kroon) .

Regandon, I have read that British coinage link before.  I was trying to figure out the standards and denominations as they changed throughout the years....very confusing for a newbie such as myself. I actually had a chart drawn up and had it somewhat figured out at one time, then my chart disappeared. :(
