[QUOTE="Aethelred, post: 2906790, member: 81808"]In 1994 I bought the coin shown below in a collection that came my way. At the time I was collecting English coins and this became the highlight of my collection. When I joined the PCGS forums in 2001 I selected "Aethelred" as my forum name. I sold this coin to a friend (maybe you know Lordmarcovan?) in July of 2013. However, since a number of people here were or are also PCGS members I kept that name when I joined this forum so they would know who I was. Needless to say I have missed the coin since it has been away. However, this weekend Lordmarcovan and his family came to Asheville for a visit and he made the mistake of bringing this coin with him. It wasn't easy, there was a lot of haggling, a complex trade involving cash, coins, pizza and the occasional threat of violence, but this coin belongs to me again! Unlike my ancient collection, my small collection of Medieval coins are all slabbed, so this one will remain in the PCGS MS-63 holder. Aethelred II Penny minted at Canterbury in AD 997.
