This just in - bought on a whim, more because of the history than the attractiveness of the coin itself.
Edward the Black Prince Denier minted in Limoges (I understand). He was the son of Edward III but died before his father so in England we skipped a generation to Richard II, the boy king.

 

This beautiful lady from Martinique must have been used for jewelry of some sort, but the coin retains its attractiveness.

 

My first non-ancient purchase since July.

Great Britain 1845 One Shilling KM# 734

I bought a couple in the past week.
I really liked the toning on this Australian half penny. Wish it didn't have the small lamination on the kangaroo though.

 

Gosh just posted this. Guernsey, 1830, 4 Doubles, KM#2

 

Here are a few of my many recent acquisitions.

 

1942 East Africa w/SA mint mark, 1791 Colombo AE stuiver dump (13.5 grams), 1862 Nova Scotia 1 cent

 

My latest addition and a bargain at £14

 

1949, Year of my birth, I see I have one also. Here is a recent arrival, 1972 Mexico 5 pesos, nice big coin.

 

Here's a few now that my camera is working again

 

1918 Canadian 5 cent silver

 

Just arrived yesterday. 1933 George V Canada 5 cent nickel

 

This arrived today it cost the ridiculous sum of £3 what a bargain and it’s genuine

 

That was a steal! This one came a few days ago, 1973 Iran 10 rials

 

Big surprise, yesterday these coins arrived. I bought them back in March, just before the plague hit and the post offices in India were closed. That seller is honest and on the ball. Ebay refused to give me any sort of refund when I thought they were lost forever.

 

Pulled the trigger on these 2 today.

1838/7 Mexico 4 Reals


1813 1/2 Real

 

I have picked up about 900 coins in the past 3 months, so not easy to figure out which ones to post in this thread.
