Yes, it is the Hungarian dealer. But I've been looking for a higher-end example of this coin since the one David Lawrence had was so rudely...
OK, here's my score. Seller's crappy pics, looks like it's covered in mud. [IMG] [IMG] The coin arrived today. Here's what it looks like, no...
Nice coin Ripley! The reverse is very clear. I've noticed with so many of these "cents" that the most distinctive part of the device - the falling...
Great coin for a type set. XF range? Is that a die clash on the obverse, in front of Liberty? Looks like it would line up with the shield and neck...

Very interesting stuff to ponder Chris. I'm not sure how thinly I want to spread my collecting though. I started with Constantine II so perhaps...
Thanks Doug. There's some nice stuff from the Bridgnorth hoard... [IMG]
I feel like a living part of that history since I reside in the heart of Amish country.
Sage advice. I wasn't really planning to buy it unless you guys thought is was a real bargain. But I am doing a bit of market research as well as...
