Great thread, fellas => we're already up to "14 pages" of gorgeous coins (great effort and great coin-collections!!)

=> out-standing!!

:hail:

 

I go to the circus & have a pizza party on the weekend & almost missed this entire 14 page thread.

Does nobody have one of those archaic coins of Lycia with the forepart of a winged boar? It's about the only winged ancient that seems to be missing in this thread. :smile

 

Since we hijack World coins Thread's, thought i would drop a few World coins here..:yes:

Dos Peso Silver Eagle and 50 Centavos 1957 Eagle..

 

Peso 1970...Eagle..
Gold Dos Pesos 1945...Eagle

 

Trajan ..Victory flying...

Nero..Victory flying...

 

Gallienus...Pegasus..

Gallienus..Tet. Eagle...

 

atta-boy, Eng => toss-in a wee bit o' "left-handed" coinage, eh?


Well okay => back atcha, dawg!!





Hey, it's got wings, brother!! (I expect your quarter to be comin' back at me, pronto!!)



Cheers, my friend (oh, and in no time flat, we will be the hot-spot in Canada!!)

 

castulo sphinx wings, 1 cent bc

 

victory wings on reverse of a hadrian..

 

alexandrian victory wings, valens reverse..

 

That's just a classic...

The best of the Canadian cent designs, eh?

 

Ok, two more...

This was as close as i got to an Owl Tet..

To make you feel at home Steve, Canadian $1 i think you call these Loonies..:yes:

 

Yup => that whole 1967 Centennial Set is "Top-Notch" ... there isn't a dog in the bunch!!! (for the record, I am "4" years older than that beautiful set ... I grew-up collecting those babies!!)

... ahhhh, memories!!

 

There's something I find much more attractive about the Canadian mint sets than the US sets. Maybe it's just the "grass is greener" syndrome.

 

I have both, and the Canadian Mint Sets are the best...

Although the modern British ones

Those look great (haven't picked up a modern set yet... have the 1970 and 1971 sets [both are different])

Yep, we call them loonies

Steve's not the only Canadian you see

 

Great thread! I'd type more of my opinion but I wore out my fingers clicking 'Like'.

 

Yah ... that was one of my better threads, eh? (well, except for spelling "fly" incorrectly!! ... damn wine!!)

=> Dionysos, AncientJoe and Martin certainly have some of the nicest coins around!!

Funny too, because that thread was created before they did the "IT upgrade" ... before the upgrade, it was littered with "likes" ... they all got lost when the new software was installed.

 

Yep, stunning! AncientJoe must just about explode with satisfaction every time he looks at his coins... especially that Euainetos dekadrachm. And the Agathokles tetradrachm. Well, pretty much every coin he has.

And Martin... holy cow. Ditto Dionysos. And many others.

 

I hear ya ... oh, but you'd better mention Bing as well, otherwise he'll start getting all cranky!!



... just jokes, dude
