    Yet another 'easy type, not-so-easy date' piece for me:

    For this particular type, anything after about 1970 is a pain if you're trying to do a date set. They were minted for circulation until 2005, and for sets in '06 before finally being discontinued.

    Qajar Shahs of Iran, Nasir al-din, gold half toman/5,000 dinars, Tihran (1)3(0)5h, wt. 1.49gms. (KM.17), uncirculated.

    The Tehran mint at this time was quite casual about the accuracy of its coin dates.

    I just picked this up today and absolutely love the toning. The eagle is incredible. Marked as VF+ but has luster and details makes me think more like EF+, but have no experience in this series.

    Well, not a coin but I couldn't resist. A large bronze desk medal from the 1873 World's Fair in Vienna.

    Can't tell from the photos, but the fields are mirrored as well. Really just great eye appeal, and it even has the original case (probably accounts for the condition).

    thank you. I am hoping it will replace my current one. Either way I will keep them both.

    So, picked up something today I've never seen before (at least in this format) - a mint sealed box of 10 Panama 1974 20 Balboas. Thought it was too cool to pass up.

    Total ASW is just over 38.5 oz of silver:

    Bought these two recently.
