    I FINALLY have a coin I think would fit! A lovely little 13 mm coin from Brunswick-Luneburg-Calenberg circa 1675. KM# 166, Mariengroschen. XF45.

    And a treat...true views, which are very close to the coin in hand!

    Sorry for the crummy photo. I only just made her my own. Better photos are forthcoming, but I thought she deserved a seat at the circ-cam table.

    Edit- now that I’ve let the cat out of the bag to the gift recipient, I’ll post the other side. I just found this 1853 quarter love token, and it has the exact initials for @Randy Abercrombie! So it should land on his desk in a few days.

    CircCam… nicely engraved love token… the right initials… perfect! :woot:

    Definitely a seat at the CircCam table!

    The No Stars design looks great like that!

    I just pulled the trigger on a Caligula Vesta As for my Roman Twelve Caesars collection.

    So there’s one of the tougher emperors out of the way, and as of this post I’m now at ten down with two to go. (I now lack only Julius Caesar and Vitellius out of the Twelve.)

    But anyway, this ancient bronze has somewhat contrasting patina. I daresay it has a slight, subtle CircCam look to it.

    OK, now that we're past post #666 and reply #666, I feel safe to post this...

    Is this CirCam?

    The obverse is, just a little bit.

    I could have been fine not being aware of that.

    Yeah. It's not super CircCammy, but it's definitely a nice coin.

    1906 O. ICG AG3. Not a coin I would normal purchase, but has a striking circcam that appealed to me. Plus it was super inexpensive.

    Not sure if these qualify either, but I enjoy the pairing. Two different reverse types.
