The random number generator pulled the number 68. Post #68 was by @Jersey magic man, so he is our winner! @Jersey magic man - PM your address...
OK, I'm here. We're overdue for the drawing, aren't we? Stand by while I fire up the random number generator...
Totally valid opinion. To each their own, right? That's part of my reasoning behind these extremely unscientific polls: just to gauge people's...
Good grief, that that looks like a Gallery Mint replica without the COPY stamp! Amazing. ("So nice it looks fake... but isn't". That's...
Thank you. It's nice to have some company in the "10 Club". Seems the 7's are in the majority here. Can't understand why, unless it's just too...
It's a great picture, but I guarantee you people would confuse it with a certain corporate logo... ;) [ATTACH]
Merged the two threads together.
PS- I don't see traces of the 9/6 overdate? The coin looks to have VG details to me. An undamaged example lists for $68 in G4 and $74 in VG per...
Yes, it looks like it got smashed against another coin in a vise or something like that. That appears to be post-mint damage (albeit somewhat...
Verily, thou mayest be forgiven for that "Holy Hand Grenade" faux pas, since there IS some resemblance to the medieval missile of...
I agree- I wish it were dated! (I voted "10" anyway.) :)
I'm afraid I'm not terribly familiar with it (without Googling it, which I will in a moment). My attention span with moderns is rather scattered....

Pretty set. I think the rose-reverse 20p coin is still my favorite regular-issue modern British coin. Something about that design just speaks to...
Thank you. We can, though I too got a bit irritated- over you declaring my medal a restrike on the basis of an (erroneous) assumption. 'Nuf...
@cpm9ball - I do not own the Bramsen catalog. I did not submit the medal. Yep. You were right on that, at least. Congratulations. One thing...
I like the grey patinated look on yours, Randy. Where's the reverse?
Hi, and welcome. @Conder101 is right. There's no way that would grade as high as MS65 (if MS at all). And if anything, I think his estimate on...
Finders fee payable in ancient or medieval hammered gold, please. ;) Like the color on that. Looks nicely grey, with a bit of contrast. Even a...
Because they're all different versions of the same design? That's why PCGS specifies "Bramsen-1990 gilt bronze". Could Bramsen have used...
