Desk? Are you referring to that kinda beat up worn old blanket chest at the end of the bed that was made in the bay state about the same time they were producing pine tree coinage? Lol

This is one of my favorite cats. The nice lady is offering the kitty a bowl of milk.

 

Yeah, never mind the gold, he likes your desk. Sigh. Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, whatever are we going to do with you?

 

A cat from Somalia:

 

Good call, Ripley ... I forgot about the ol' panther!!

 

This lion countermark made this Central American Republic 1/2 real coin good for use in Costa Rica. The countermark was done in 1849 over an 1848 dated coin.

Thanks for letting me share these cat coins.

 

That's a great piece!
