Here are some more

 

Very nice! I also like the eagle and snake design.

 

I collect anything that is pre tudor period, coins and artifacts but mainly British. I like European stuff too.

Not interested in anything else really.

I cannot stand any coin that cannot be touched.

 

I collect world silver coins.
But after seeing this one posted on CT, had to get one myself.

Aluminum!

 

Here are some coins of Togo to follow the coins posted by John14 & Lonegunlawyer.

My last passport has a couple pages containing Togo & Benin stamps.

How can you not want a coin with a beaver on it?

 

The beaver is a very noble beast! I find myself very drawn to the Candadian coins. I feel as though their mint listens to the collectors. Unlike certain mints that will remain nameless *cough*us mint*cough*

 

Mrweaseluv would like that! LOL

 

Malagasy by any other name...

 

By the way, that thing in the middle of the face value is a stylized sawfish (poisson-scie). That is also the logo of the issuing central bank, see here. It appears on pretty much every BCEAO coin and note ...

That is a very nice example Derick.

 

I took a new pic of Princess Di this morning, and PhotoScaped it. Trying to get the toning and details to show well is difficult.

For $36, this was my best purchase of the year!

 

That is niiiiiiiice!
