Help from Krause Standard Catalog

Could some helpful person possibly tell me what the Krause 2004 or 2005
entry for the Leopold II Belgian 1868 Five Francs coin states?

I am curious to compare it against what I have been getting on eBay.

Thanks,

Roland.

It appears there are two varieties, having to do with the designer's name.

Designer's name near rim, KM-24, two varieties:

a. position A $10 vf, $35 xf
b. position B $100vf, $330 xf

Position A means edge lettering right-side up when portrait is face down.
Position B means edge-lettering right-side up when portrait is face up.

Designer's name near truncation, KM-25, $1500 vf, $3000 xf

This information is from the SCWC 1801-1900, 4th (2005) edition.

Thank you very much.

Yes, there is a pos B currently on sale on eBay but it hasn't shifted
for repeat auctions at about $140.
