I've got a strong suspicion I posted this CWT the last time the "anchor" theme came around, so in case it's a repeat, I'll also add a Canadian...
Oh, I absolutely LOVE that thorny rosebush design! That would be an appealing 18th century coin to me, based on the design alone, even if it were...
That was three bucks VERY well spent, I say!
@tibor was my mentor when I was (briefly) collecting early-dated Hungarian ducats.
Great piece! Maybe a pencil rubbing would show some of the worn inscriptions better? Hm. Maybe not.
Pretty. It has already been established that I suck at grading MS Jeffies, but I'll go 65.
Who knew fakes could be so much fun? :)

The spear point alone is awesome, but "Robo-dog" has tons of character, too!
I'll use this as a test post for the moment. Disregard. Ancient Greece (Ionia, Phokaia): electrum hekte, Athena and quadripartite punch, ca....
Well, in that case, the decision is entirely at your whim. Planning to submit the others for grading as well?
This. I've also heard marks with this look referred to as "reeding marks", because they were made by the reeding on the edge of the other coin.
Hmm. It appears I forgot to post 2018 LordM Newp #1 to this thread. Ordered it from a dealer in Belgium. It's not here just yet. Soon, maybe....
