<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Theodosius, post: 3080550, member: 77077&quot;]I have been embroiled in buying a new house and moving the last couple months which has eaten all my time, energy and spare funds.&nbsp; Things are finally starting to settle a little so I thought I would buy a new coin just on principle.&nbsp; I picked this coin with its three sea creatures because it reminds me of the kind of coin that Stevex6 likes.&nbsp; It turns out to be somewhat rare, CNG only lists 2 in their sales records.&nbsp; I got it for a super deal at ebay shop MORTOWN, a place I check regularly for good stuff.</p><p><br /></p><p>My camera setup is in a box somewhere so I had to resort to a cell phone picture:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]775664[/ATTACH]</p><p>THRACE, Anchialus.
