All of the reasons stated above, and then some. Collect holed coins, you say? I might have been known to do that, once upon a time... ;)[IMG]...
Hope so. Maybe if they were in the same cabinet for generations?
I suspect they might be AT (dunno for sure), but regardless, those are some gorgeous George III crowns! Your Celtic horsie avatar coin is pretty...
