    GDJMSP--of course roosters count. I'd put up that rooster against those lions or that eagle any day.

    I suspect the rooster either runs in terror, or is awestruck and trampled in the field.

    I just went back to read the original thread regarding that franc. How amazing!

    Not a problem. LOL

    Actually, the "chicken" reference has a link to you, Doug.

    You see, I've always loved the "French Gold Rooster", ever since I saw you post a picture, and had you explain the design. Well, I sort of started posting it, and other, poultry coins on another forum. Before long, some of my on-line friends picked up on the idea that I had a "thing" for "chicken" coins. (even had one send me a "Chicken Ranch" token)

    Still haven't been able to live it down. :eek:
