Thats probably the "only" good fever to be infected with! I just got the silver one too, now that I started into Roman AR coins..... However, I must say I kinda felt fevered all this Summer, we are having a wicked heat wave since early June, on the plus side though....amazing tan.
I've had silver fever badly this past year, to the tune of 36 silver coins in 10 months. I warn you, silver fever can be just as bad as your gold fever.
Nice, as I recall those coins are a decent size too. Gold fever huh? My head might not be hurting but my wallet will.
Thanks everyone for neat comments....yes the reverse was the artistic talent of a really great engraver. Thats sadly lacking in our modern era coins.
I would like to see some writeup accompanying each coin. You post such nice coins that we've never seen, it's a shame we don't get a little back story accompanying the coins. A small thing, I know.
