Ok, this is long overdue, but I just wanted to thank Stainless (Anthony) for some gifts that he sent me. The Iraqi note was sent to me as a birthday present.... yeah, that was back in April. And the milled shilling he sent me was for Christmas. Over the past year since I have gotten to know him, he has been trying really, really hard to get me to collect ancients...... well, this is as close as he's gonna get! The obverse is supposed to show a portrait of Elizabeth I but is well worn as you can see. It says ELIZABETH D G ANG FRA ET HI REGINA and The reverse shows a shield and says POSVI DEV ADIVTOREM MEV (I have made God my helper). This coin was made from 1560-1561. Thank you Anthony.
Yup, part of our Cupid trade...I was happy with the Gordian III and the Postumus...and I thought this would be cool to give to Joe. Glad you like them Joe...Umma getcha hooked eventually! stainless
I like the fleur de lis on the coin. :thumb: I have one of those Iraqi Dinars laying around in my closet somewhere that I got for free a couple years ago.
