Beautiful!
I posted this coin in a "guess the grade" but here it is now complete with information. [ATTACH] BRITISH BAHAMAS Time of Elizabeth I, 1952-2022...
Interesting. I don't mind slabs for modern coins but I usually crack out my ancients. I don't think the 70-point Sheldon scale will work well for...
Thanks everyone! Nobody got it exactly, but most of you were very close. It's graded MS66, tied with 3 at PCGS and 2 at NGC for top graded...

Thanks! Around the time our coins were minted Oman was very dependent on the British - and you can see that influence in the coin design, with the...
Terrific find! Much better than my first silver: a 1936 Mercury dime.
Here's a special coin type I've been wanting for awhile: Muscat & Oman copper 1/4 anna, dated AH 1311 (AD 1893-4). [ATTACH] MUSCAT AND OMAN Time...
