Post entry, in for the Morgan and peace dollars. Well worn, but I know someone who will love them. Here's what my wife left me in the bathroom on my birthday this year.
Entry post for another chance at the Greek lion. Here is a coin that I got added as an online "plate " coin to Wildwinds com PERGAMON(Mysia) AE16. Obverse: Head of Athena right, wearing helmet decorated with 8 pointed star. Reverse: AΘHNAΣ / NIKHΦOPOY. Owl standing facing on palm frond right, with wings spread. Monograms ΓΑ and ΑΡ either sides of owl in fields. Wildwinds online “plate” coin SNGLeipzig 1102-1103. Pergamon mint, ca. 200-133 BC. 2,9 g- 16 mm.
Please count me in for the 2020 Hurricane Helene ASE. I choose this "ugly silver" coin because of the story that accompanies it. It's physical proof of the goodness of others, particularly after disaster strikes, and would hold a special place in my miniature trove of slabbed coins. Thank you once again for running these giveaways, and best of luck to everyone!
I'm still trying for the Crusader States: ca. 1163-1201 AD silver "helmet" denier of Bohemond III of Antioch. By now you know why I would want it. Just appeals to me and I don't have anything like it.
Well, here’s an extra bonus entry for you. Good luck! I recently gave away the Crusader coin in my personal collection. Maybe I’ll find a higher grade (AU to MS) Bohemond “helmet” denier like that at the FUN show.
