A while back I posted a picture of my 1994 Royal Mint Trial mono-metallic £2 coin. I have been trying for ages to get more info from the Royal...
As the Wellington Box medal created so much interest, I have scanned all the contained discs in more detail: [ATTACH][ATTACH]
More on the above on this BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-21063882 .. and also to answer an early query, he...
Not really my area, and I don't think I have any books to help. My guess would be French bishopric of some sort - there are many. Or else Crusader?
Usual American bias here so I thought I would post some British ones. Then I couldn't pick just one, so here are 4 of my favourites: 1847...

I hate these ads as much as anyone, but they are covered in their small print: "you can reserve your own tribute proof of the $50 Buffalo Gold...
Strong American bias (as ever) around here! :-) My favourite coin is British of course: [ATTACH] Or maybe: [ATTACH]
Here's one to keep you going - German 1939 B 2 Mark - Vienna mint. To me it is scary that some people are so intent on re-writing history that...
Funniest and most surprising tale like this I have heard for a while came from a friend at an auction. He collects old toys, and was called to...
