I saw a larger version go for $250 on eBay recently, so yes, I did get lucky.

Thank you for the kind comment. The coin is a silver French Marianne medal from the 1920's that I bought on eBay for about $35 from a very nice woman in Belgium.

It actually looks a lot like me!

have a look at ******* calum it's better than numista, doing some great swaps on there.

the match was brilliant from my point of view, what a brilliant change to see two british managers in a top class game,

nothing ultra special today calum except the last coins of belgium and luxembourg before they adopted the euro, i think word is getting round as i was talking to an avid bank note collector who has started to go every week and he was a member of the IBNS as well. one really interesting thing i did find was an 1849 apothecary coin weight.

Awesome French 1903 25 Centimes, very impressive, and a great find on your part my friend, good work!
Also, I can't quite tell from the picture, what is the coin in your avatar, if you don't mind my asking?

thanks calum i really appreciate that.

that would be great calum,

just dip the coin for a couple of minutes then rinse in cols water and dab dry, it usually works well and doesn't destroy any patina on the coin, i will keep a look out at widnes for any more interesting coins if you are interested?
