My entry despite poor photos!!!! Sorry about the photography but this is my entry.. an English 1887 sixpence. Best wishes, Mike.
Ok, playing with my cam and I think I found the close-up setting. This one is indeed contest-rules appropriate and owned by me. Let me know what you think! Japan, 2 Sen, 1877 to 1884 period (can't date it exactly). Love the dragon on this one!
Amazing coin ! I'm sure that toning is amazing in hand. That's certainly a coin that I would be interested in buying and would go for at auction. Once again dude, very nice !
I just received this and would like to enter it. 1990 German Silver and Gold Penny Black 150th Anniversary Commemorative 1 Penny. Number 37/1000 5 gms Gold, 2 ounces Silver
I can think of two possible explanations for that: No matter what it claims, that site is nowhere near complete for the 19th Century. Because it is the wrong size (as discussed in your thread about it), your item is almost certainly a fantasy piece, not a coin, despite it's similar appearance to Y#39, an RS127 (1908) Siamese silver baht.
I think I just made it in time! I already entered but I used a USA Coin by a mistake! So I want thins to be my entry instead!! thanks!
I've chosen the winners which wasn't an easy thing to do. First place goes to lincolnhoardr with his beautiful 10 cent coin from the Netherlands Antilles. I've never seen so much detail on a modern circulating coin. If only all coins were this nice! And second place goes to Daboz with his amazing Mouton d'Or gold coin. It is beautiful, and was tough to choose between the above coin and this coin for first place.
