I'll bet the French had a really hard time fighing and eagle with 2 heads, a sword and a club LOL. Man you have some sweet coins!

 

I absolutely envy your collection... :crying:

 

Thats a good one Noost.

Luis, I've been working on puting togather a set of coins for my grandaughters, and writting a history book on the history and coinage from the countries my family came from. It's been in the works for quite some time. I try to find the most important King's and Queen's from those countries and buy coins with their portraits on them. Sort of learning family history through coins. I just hope they pass the collection down to their childern. I just have to make sure they get the Bank safety box key.
