It's a nice looking coin and I'm sure quite expensive. I can't tell you if it's real or not but like others have said I would only buy a coin like...
@Orfew, I made the same decision a while back to focus primarily on medieval and especially English hammered coins. I sold a bunch of nice Roman...
I'll have to look for the show The Last Kingdom. Sounds good. Here are a couple of Anglo Saxon coins from my collection. I love English hammered...
A wonderful coin. Everything about it is attractive especially the portrait. I lock the color too.
I hope you can put it to the back of your mind while in Europe.
That's one of the most interesting coins I've seen in a while. When I first saw it I assumed the photo of the reverse was a mirror image.
At least no one was hurt. Hope your insurance takes care of most of it too. We had 22 inches of snow out of the same system. That's a bunch for us...
Nice finds. It looks like the soil treats them pretty well.
That's a very attractive and interesting coin @Mat. I've seen them and have been wanting to get one but have not yet. I really like the helmet...

Thanks for the guided tour.
I'm no expert @Ken Dorney but it sure looks good to me. I just got my new lens in the mail today. It's a Canon f 2.8 100mm macro lens with 1.1...

The results speak for themselves. It seems to do a great job of evenly lighting the coin. I wonder how it stands up to one of those ring...
The more I read about the Vikings the more impressed I am with them. They sure influenced the direction of history in Europe.
@jamesicus, I'm using Paint Shop Pro 2019 on my Windows PC. I imagine there is some photo editing software that will work on the iPad.
That's a great photo of an awesome coin. Can you tell us a bit more about your light and your setup?
