Once again dude, very nice !

I've chosen the winners which wasn't an easy thing to do. First place goes to lincolnhoardr with his beautiful 10 cent coin from the Netherlands Antilles. I've never seen so much detail on a modern circulating coin. If only all coins were this nice!
And second place goes to Daboz with his amazing Mouton d'Or gold coin. It is beautiful, and was tough to choose between the above coin and this coin for first place.
