Very nice. The 5 Lati might be my favorite of all crown designs.
Would you believe I'm a long distance mind reader? Nah, probably not. You mentioned it on another thread...your buffalo thread, I think.
Great to see you taking steps to protect your coins, Becca (it IS Becca, right?). You're definitely heading in the right direction.

Well then, it'll need to be one of those oversized 'coffee table' books.
Simply imposing a minimum post count before starting a thread would help lessen the problem.
