    two very different coins from two very different parts of the world, both minted at roughly the same time. i love holding them together in my hand and trying to imagine the world they lived in... man, i love this hobby!!!

    I know what you mean swish, holding something that's a thousand years old really gets you thinking about the history of it and what its "seen" over the centuries. Very nice coins. Thanks for showing them.
