Great! That was fast, considering I mailed it Saturday.
Is that a Lombardic "H"? Some King Henry (Henri)? (Or is it an "R"? Looks much more like an "R", in which case that scribbly "Henry-something"...
Lovely coins. I had an 1881 on my old Holey Gold Hat. [ATTACH]
As @TIF said: yikes! :eek:o_O
Look at the 1838 quarter at the top of this page. Not only is that a gorgeous CircCam, but I also observe Gerry Fortin's use of my term in the...
Both handsome. Extra credit for achieving a copper/bronze CircCam on that Nova Scotia. It's not always easy to score CircCam contrast on base...
I had a feeling someone was going to weigh in with more detail on that, and perhaps correct me, but I'm just happy if I didn't flub any of the...

I might forget all about these and go galloping after that Lizzie groat instead. Time will tell.
By the time I got up the funds to pursue Coin B in this poll, I'd be far more likely to pursue this, which is in an auction at the end of this...
It will be a very challenging mission indeed.
Not my coin. I love this. I want this. I don't know if I'll be able afford this. It's up for auction at the end of the month. Maybe I'll sell...
Perfect. Perfect. Yeah, those have a little bit of it goin' on. And by NO means is the CircCam phenomenon only a US coin thing!
Whoa! I totally overlooked that! It isn't the first time I've been distracted by admiring the contrast and ended up overlooking some flaw. In...
