You TOTALLY read my mind ... I thought about starting this very same game last night, but lack of an imaged 2017 coin and other distractions...
I'll have to look for my own bignose examples later (on a small device with a slow connection right now) but I will say I very much like the...
Nice coins, and a handsome tabby cat in the OP. Our "Cactus Pete" looks very similar.
Right on the cusp between G and VG, I'd say. I'd call it G6, personally. Low grade but does look original. The scratches would be a concern but...
The strike (if in fact that was struck at all) looks soft and mushy to me on places like Athena's lips and hair strands, as well as Nike's left...

Yes, I suppose there are too many intangibles for them to make it work on the Registry. The Hejira dates in your set, like the coin in the OP,...
Indeed he did. That video put the candle company in the black for the rest of the year.
Brilliant! Not so sure about the pun (yeah, OK- nice pun- LOL), but I see you've managed to deftly insert another classic '80s song reference in...
I live for feedback like this. Thank you. :)
I too would be happy to send you some "appetizer" coins.
PPPS (am I getting annoying yet? LOL) - Just looked at some of the image gallery. WOW. What a terrific set. No, I think I'll stick with a...
PPS- oh. "Showcase". So a custom set, then? *whew* Still, I might have to think about following along similar lines. Think about. Again-...
PS- I guessed before looking up the cert. Arabic coins are a very weak area of my knowledge, but going from the style, I guessed, then went to...
Separate names with a comma.
