Thanks. Except when the bullion value of the bigger modern gold like that 1.3 oz AGW 1965 Peruvian 100-soles hit record highs, that James I gold Laurel was the most valuable coin in my World inventory. It’s certainly the one I paid the most for, since I bought the bigger gold moderns when bullion prices were at about half of their more recent peak level.

There’s big gold, and then there’s… Early Seventeenth Century big gold. That’s like a whole ‘nother level.
