<p>[QUOTE="Nick Zynko, post: 4850656, member: 110450"]John that was a fantastic post! You captured a complicated piece of English coinage history and presented it in a way that was an absolute pleasure to read. “The head of a fool on the neck of an ass.” - Most Brilliant description of a counterstamp-ever! I was extremely interested to read that George III was an avid coin collector. I viewed his collection at the British Museum via your link and was totally blown away. You would of thought the coin collection of the world's most powerful monarch of his time would be the finest examples in the world- they are far from it. But what is there is a type collection containing every important coin throughout the ages. A incredible set for all hobbyists to dream about. Thank you for a very fun and educational read ![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
