Ladymarcovan and I enjoy Olive Garden now and then. Good to see y'all there!
Let me repost that coin and its description. I was about to try to explain something to Randy about it, and ended up getting confused myself!...
Neat quadriga reverse. And big!
Yes, neat. Cleopatra is on my “to do” list. I’ve never had a coin of hers.
If it isn’t, I have an even nicer one in the pipeline. It simply hasn’t been added to the Giveaway Gallery yet, as of this post, because I’m...
It so happens that I have a second gilt Lobau porcelain medal, which is of the same basic type as the one currently listed, only in white...

Nah. Not unless you really want to. The holder might be crap, but hey, at least it’s a free plastic holder. And like you say, the coin’s not...
Just be thankful you get a cake!
Those cheesy NuGrade slabs with the funny fonts always make me chuckle, and think of grape soda, for some reason. :hilarious: [IMG]
The focus setting on the camera, for one thing. ;) A 1939 cent is not plated. That's only a thing with post-1982 zinc cents.
Looks like they cross the $200 mark once you get up into MS60 and beyond. Below that, they're in the $100s. Per Numismedia: $173 in XF40, on up...
Nice find!
