This IS obscure for sure, but interesting.
Again, I'm not 100 percent since the coin is in rather rough shape. But thank you.
The griffin is nice enough all by itself, but the field marks both obverse and reverse make this a fantastic pickup.

I would welcome this example in my small RR collection.
Interesting and appealing coins Doug. It's the portraits, as you say, that makes them appealing to me as well. They seem different from the usual.
Ain't that the truth!:p
I know he owns at least one. Very interesting coin.
I don't collect these, but this one makes me want to take a second look. Nice pickup.
