This is a nice well-executed pictorial landscape. Most of my original writeup on it over on Collectors Universe was about my collecting habits at the time, rather than the piece itself, so since that commentary is now outdated, so I'll just repost the coin itself here. I have since sold it, but it was a nice piece.

This was formerly part of my Engraved/Counterstamped/Oddball Type Set.
