PS- (and perhaps more on topic) I have never had any of those quadrans coins. They're neat, but their relative lack of pictorial design has made...
Looks even flashier in hand. They're nice coins, and popular. Just not rare at all.
If it gives you any idea, here is one that is a problem-free, PCGS certified Mint State example (MS64). I paid less than 20 bucks for it, already...
The FAO medal belongs to @stlnats, whose pictures I borrowed. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
You obviously have a keen eye for nice bronze.
These two aren't the same type at all, but rather the same theme. You see, back in pre-2016, when my Eclectic Box collection was a misguided...

Aaaaagh! I ... want ... one! :nailbiting: And have for some time. Zero is definitely not enough! ;) Coingrats.

Pure epic win in that category, then!

That's an unusual one! Fiber? Which of the Allied nations issued it?
PPS- did you find that coin roll hunting? If so, that there is nothing but pure win, regardless of the condition!
PS- I'd soak it in mineral oil for a while and then work on it a bit with a soft toothbrush, to see if some of the crud will come off. A little...
Interesting. Yes, the coin is rough- it looks just like a detector find (I've dug 1860s Indian cents myself). But that's a somewhat better date,...
I'd love to have one of those Carthaginian/Zeugitana electrum horsies one day, but it seems it is my destiny to remain forevermore in two- and...
If you're going to price them, you'll need to post in the For Sale forum (be sure to read the rules there). Of course we're happy to discuss...
Cool medal. Even the dug one, despite its issues. That one has a story to tell.
