    I love proof coins. This one was a birthday gift from a coin dealer and good friend. I love the contrast in the frosting.

    Pictures do no justice to this coin, which is flawless by the way.

    Very popular and nice choice; Khusro II 591-628. I picked up one of these from MintProducts too.

    Did you find that it takes them FOREVER to ship?

    i thought it was a good deal though.

    Yes, it took forever it seemed. Not sure, the coin on Vcoins might be a different ruler, size condition, etc.. Nothing to worry about the coin you'll receive will be genuine. :) They may be slow, but they are respected.

    Ben

    P.S. After following your like, I see it's infact a different ruler Kavadh II, 628. Likely fewer coins of this fellow were minted.

    yeah, I relized that afterwards..

    the one me and you have still goes for $45, so we did get a good price still:kewl:

    stainless

    BTW: how long do they usually take, they said a week, but it's already been longer than that, and they havent even shipped it out yet.

    Hi Arizona,
    That is a mighty fine looking 09 Lincoln. The colors are great. Looks almost like it plans on making a bullseye pattern, and that would be really nice.

    That Australia proof dollar is 'WOW'... looks amost like it is diamond studded.
    Maybe I will have to quit on US coins and start a new hobby...:whistle:

    It's really hard to narrow down to one.
    Heck, it's hard to narrow it down to two or three.
    But, here's a couple.

    After much deliberation, and third party consultation, i have winnowed it down to two.

    China, Kwangtung Province, 1909-1911, 20 cents - I'm even reasonably sure that its genuine!

    Ardatirion,
    Thanks for posting this one. One side of my family has been traced back to Claudius of the Holy Roman Empire as one of our ancestors. Seeing something from the ancestor's time can often help one to feel more connected to those who came before you.

    Besides that, nice coins you got there!
