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....
Switzerland (Basel): gold guilder (goldgulden) of Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor, ca. 1452-1478 [ATTACH] Obverse: ✠ FRIDORICVS ○ ROMANO' ○...
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...
Frumpy, but cool. Interesting little thing.
I read about the Republic of Minerva recently. Micronations are interesting, and their fantasy coinage can be pretty neat. I believe these...
@cpm9ball- Look at the top left corner of the slab label. See the date there? 1840. Not "1840" in quotes. Not "1840 restrike". "Bramsen-1990"...
Exactly. This.
