Nice! What's your other gold piece? [IMG] [IMG]
I don't know about the toning, but it looks like AU details to me. Details-wise, it's pretty sharp.
Wow.
These are neat. I have only one Sasanian coin. [IMG]
A Charles VI ecu d'or from the Lucerne Abbey Treasure. Just received from France, after a nearly month-long customs delay. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Congratulations. Having a $3 piece of any kind in one's collection is no small accomplishment. Here's one I bought in January at the FUN show....

Hope the doggo comes out OK.
The closest thing I have is this metal detector find. The local cash "crop" down here is not berries, but shrimp. This token was used both here...
I don't own any, but thanks to you, I do find them interesting. I like that 8-cent rectangle.

That's more than a "trade token". It's a Trade dollar! A coin.
Sledgehammer jokes aside, I will say you have some nice looking coppers, there.
Nice, but not a proof.
I know, right? Half a lifetime ago!
You could put the coin on a flat surface and whack it with a sledgehammer until it flattens out to a slightly larger diameter. ;)
