    Wow- sunk four pages back, and dormant almost a month?

    Tsk, tsk. We'll have to do something about that.

    Here, let's do an easy and popular theme, to get back into the swing of things.

    How about lions, then?

    Lions, or ... hats. Take your pick. We've done both before, but nothin' says we can't revisit certain themes.

    If you insist! I am just sorting through a box of World coins bought for peanuts on Saturday (same lot that included the SLQ and IHC posted in New Acquisitions). Came across this, which Krause seems to rate better than scrap, and it has a lion, so...

    Nice bulk box find! I love the type. Well done, sir!

    I used to live there (East Africa- Tanzania in my case), and that's my paternal grandmother's birthyear, so it doubly resonates with me.

    Lions, continued.

    Or if you like, archaic coins with incuse punch reverses.

    Continue with lions, or go with error coins, as you prefer.
