    Back then I was using a Canon Power Shot SX530HS. I loved it.
    To be honest now I just use my Samsung phone, that what I use to take the images of my new token.

    I don't think my Samsung Galaxy 20 gets such sharp pics. My old Samsung S4 seemed better

    Some references say gold filled but I think that it is just a bronze pin.

    Sample slab ✔️
    Thai Red cross medal✔️
    It's not often I see exonumia in sample slabs, but world exonumia is quite rare I think! PCGS has the mintage number as 8,000 for the medal, but I've been unable to located where they obtained that information. I emailed the auction house on the slab located in Bangkok, to see if they had any info. Waiting for response. Enjoy!

    Made a visit to my LCD yesterday. I got this little gem because it was painted.
    A little known American sportscar with a very low mintage. And an author.
    Look close, to see the date of the coin is directly under the date of the elongation.

    I think this coin had a die chip on the left wheat eat.

    Picked up another mint medal for 3 bucks. Apparently the same medal currently available for $20 from the mint. This one appears to be in some promotional packaging. DSCN4588~2.JPG DSCN4589~2.JPG

    An interesting piece of exonumia I picked up. The piece pays homage to the voyageur dollar of Canada and it's replacement by the loonie in 1987. A Canadian cent has been planed and over struck by a pair of dies, I'm assuming in a reeded collar as this piece has edge reeding where a normal Canadian cent doesn't. On the reverse when titled in the light the date of the host coin can be seen, 1972 (KM# 59).

    A nice CONECA medal, dwhiz. I have a few pieces from the organization in my numismatic exonumia collection but not this one.
    What's the size and metal? Thanks for posting it.

    Found mine in the LCS junk box
    It was still in the plastic like yours but I removed for pics. Showing some wear while still in plastic.
    I also have the San Francisco. I’ll dig that one out for pics later 1AD9A4A4-7F7A-4245-8CBD-C3FA7CD95E22.jpeg DCD8A684-DD57-4069-9593-D60C9E42264B.jpeg B09553ED-9E3C-4476-AF09-230A33D7BB96.jpeg

    Thanks, The name at the bottom of the Elongated cent proved to be quite interesting.
