<p>[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 859081, member: 16269"]I bought this on ebay a couple of weeks ago and it arrived today. It a 2 ounce silver piece entitled "Frida y Diego". On one side is "Los Dos Fridas, 1939" (The Two Fridas) by Frida Kahlo and on the other side is "Desnudo Con Alcatraces, 1944" (Nude with Calla Lilies) by Diego Rivera. </p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww201/ikandiggit/Frida1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww201/ikandiggit/frida2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>A few years ago I was enthralled by the movie "Frida" (2002) where the artist Frida was played by Salma Hayek.
