<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 13022879, member: 10461&quot;]I finally acquired a coin with a pedigree to the John Quincy Adams collection.&nbsp; I&#039;m supposedly a descendant of the 6th US president, and had been wanting a JQA-pedigreed coin for a long time, but kept losing at auction.&nbsp; Finally I won this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>The coin is a <b>Roman Republican denarius of L. Memmius, ca. 109-108 BC</b>.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://media.numisbids.com/sales/hosted/cng/e/524/image00408.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/john_q-_adams-jpg.1511468/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Another goal I&#039;ve had is to acquire a pre-1500 <i>dated</i> coin with a clearly readable AD date before 1500, especially a <i>goldgulden</i>.&nbsp; Early <i>dated</i> pre-1500 European coins are not common, and I wanted not only an appealing looking piece but one in gold as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>This <b>1495 goldgulden from Frankfurt </b>has the curious medieval &quot;4&quot; in the date which looks like a cancer awareness ribbon.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://img.ma-shops.com/saenn/pic/56089_11370a00_c.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
