    Not a coin but a medalet from my first ship in the Royal Navy, hms Ganges was a training base for boy sailors and we joined at age 15. The mast on the reverse was 135ft high and part of our training was to climb it.the guy at the very top was called the button boy and in my opinion must have been clinically insane as all he had to hold him was a lighting rod.

    Oh- I forgot I've got another ship on this one.

    Plus an anchor. Add in a cornucopia with coins spilling out of it, and a nekkid lady, and it becomes rather irresistible, as far as I'm concerned.
