    The letter "K" that is in black ink is a previous collection reference number.

    @wcg Thank you for the kind words. I will post more on the 26th.
    Are there any that are your favorites? What area of numismatics do
    you collect. Albert Frey's book got me started.
    MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!! I hope you are spending time with family
    and friends in good health. I can't wait for my grandson, 12 years old,
    to start opening his presents. He has brought so much joy and happiness
    to my life!

    I mainly collect coins from the low countries and holed coins from the Chinese empire. So your coins of Namur, Liège and Brabant particularly caught my eyes.

    @Choucas I have quite a few from the 1470's and 1480's that are
    from the Lowlands. I spent a few nights in Belgium the summer of
    1973. What a beautiful country!! I hope to visit again.

    I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Santa really took
    care of my grandson. Let's hope the coming New Year is good
    to us with our families and our/their health.

    Minted in Frankfurt. This coin has the"2" in the date looking like a "Z".

    Minted at Damm. The "2" in the date is backwards.

    Oh, these are wonderful! I'm so glad to be finally seeing them. I was momentarily floored by the quality of your images, so when you said Todd at BluCC did them, it all made sense.

    I've had the Levinson book for a decade, and still have yet to own a pre-1500 dated coin. 1505 is as early as I've managed so far. I think a Levinson-listed coin will definitely be on my 2019 to-do list.

    Here's one that's out of my league by a factor of 10x, but I love looking at stuff like this anyway.

    In fact, it was my admiration for that design that influenced my purchase of this as a substitute I could actually afford.
