    This is one of my favorite of your box of 20 as well. Soho mint, correct?

    Okay, so 2003 is too modern for you. How about 2002?

    Make it 2001 and we got a deal ;)

    Edit: After looking through my photos I do have a "partial" 2002 world coin photographed.

    The Greek Euro (right) was modeled after my favorite ancient coin, the Athenian Tetradrachm (left)

    I'm only scanning Euros right now. That will have to wait until I start scanning Marks.

    Great Britain or 1810.

    I unexpectedly won this 1/3 guinea piece in the GC auction last night, on an impulse bid, since it seemed to be pretty low. GC had erroneously listed it as a "1/3 gulden" (sic).

    I don't think anybody else bid after me. I got it for a bit less than my maximum (it closed at $572 after buyer's fee).

    Now, check this out. Though it's probably the most common date, Krause lists it at $775 in XF and $1,275 in MS60. And this is a certified MS62. Granted, it's in ANACS rather than PCGS or NGC plastic, and Krause may be (likely is) inflated here, but... VF+ money for certified MS62 Georgian-era British gold? Seems like a real bargain!

    Don't know if I'll keep this one or flip it. My collection is already a bit heavy on British and Georgian material.

    Here's an NGC 62 @ $975 obo.
    Here's a PCGS 62 @ $1,235 obo.

    Have I overlooked anything? I think I might have just gotten a win, here!

    Anyway, back to UNO. That's Great Britain or 1810 to the next player.
