Hi,

here is B117 R42 from the number 4 of the catalogue. Not the same coin unfortunately...

You have the Boehringer catalogue but not the volume of the plates ? it's better to have it in order to proceed the  'Quellenforschung'  ;D

No, the coin illustrating the reverse R42 is the 4th coin of the entry #117 of the catalogue (Newell collection). Have a look to the text.
