Nice set! Josh at CIVITAS sells some nice stuff. He posts on Collectors Universe. Not sure if he comes here. My Puffin cost me only the...
The US collectors always default to the Dahlonega half-eagle (which is the only $4-figure coin here), and the Peacock. I got the latter in a swap...

That's Helios, the sun god, though he does look rather effeminate and Medusa-like here! This is one of my top five coins. Probably top three....
Just a hotel clerk's salary - barely above the minimum wage in some states. No side job, at least for the last six or seven years. And to keep...

PS- (it's a pretty enough coin that I came back for a second look!) It has definitely been cleaned. Obviously a long time ago (well before your...
Whoops. Miscount. Technically 34 pieces in the next Eclectic Box update, which I might post this morning. Edit: it is up, now. Yes, the "Box...
