<p>[QUOTE="Eskychess, post: 345161, member: 4692"]You know, as I look at the coins I bought from that lady - it looks clear to me they're from a WWII soldier. My grandfather was in China during WWII and brought home coins - but they were all Chinese - he never made it to Europe - but very similar kind of keep. These coins - France, Germany, Belgium, Norway, Denmark are all very old - Geez as I think about it - this soldier may have been a 101st Screaming Eagle - I'm going to get the guy's name and do some homework. Find out officially if he was a Screaming Eagle or not. If he was - I may have just hit the jackpot in terms of writing an article for 'Coinage' or 'Coin World' ... The soldier - coin collector of a famous unit like that. Call me stupid, but I think there is one heck of a good article to read out of something like that <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> (and then the pictures! That's where the money is) if indeed it turns out to be so.</p><p><br /></p><p>Esky[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
