It is my curse to be interested in Merovingian coins, not that I can add often to my tiny collection.
I like Merovingian AV coins too, only have one in my collection. Always wanted one with Charles Martel. However, my fav. are from Medieval period 1100-1450AD, esp. the Cavalier d'or types. Fantastic designs from Low Countries.
Congrats! That looks like a great piece. Having it in hand must be incredibly satisfying after a 15-year wait!
Medoraman, that is a super fantastic coin!!! And a type that I would love to own someday. Need to earn some more funds first though. I think you got a great example! Congrats!!!!!
Good advice Doug , This one is in my black cabinet , (under) weight and the price I paid on eBay allpoint to one conclusion: fake
After bidding on and losing 8 Victoriatus in the span of a year, I finally bought one the other day. There are hard to get, or maybe I had lousy luck...maybe because @red_spork is buying them all. LOL
