That's quite unusual, and interesting. The sans-serif font is definitely modern, though, as mentioned.
In my limited experience as a coin dealer, I've been presented with supposed Spanish treasure cobs ("pieces of eight") which came with similar...
Mine's on an oversized flan, as it was apparently overstruck on some kind of tetradrachm with an eagle reverse. [IMG]
Brilliant!

Zeus - um - The Great Oz - um - @Peter T Davis has been tinkering with the interface, I believe. What happens back there behind that curtain is...
Thanks. I do love the CircCam look, and was the person who coined the term, back around '06 or thereabouts. And yes, the Eclectic Box was a "Box...
