At risk of tipping my hand, here's the one I'm considering. German States (Pomerania-Stettin): silver doppelschilling of Bogislaw XIV, undated,...
I quite like that Constantius!
Actually, there is a surprising amount of gold, even proof gold, though of course the coins are tiny. As to your "graded 1921 Peace" scenario, I...
Yes, a vise job, unfortunately, but I can see why it would get your attention. It had me going for a moment, until I looked at the full sized...
Here. In the holiday spirit, I just gave you 100 imaginary US dollars, with the sole proviso that you buy US or World or Ancient coins or...
Perfect. So we still have the old "ships" theme sailing parallel to the new theme of DOOM. PS- oh! I did not realize those were actual NCLT...

I'm not so sure about that, but I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, either. I did wonder about that.
Sometimes gimmicky stuff can be fun. I suppose that's the whole point. Those "ghost ship" medals are ten times more attractive and classier than...
I agree. The Portuguese made some lovely coins, ship-themed or otherwise, which are appealing in any grade.
