<p>[QUOTE="Milesofwho, post: 3073082, member: 91469"]Here's mine! I am forever grateful to Baldwin's summer catalog because it alerted me to the fact they had one for sale at all, and it was the only thing on the list I could afford. When I went to their shop, that one had sold, but they had a group of five to choose from. This one was, in my opinion, the best. Also, When I visited Mr. Kern the year before he went out of business, I noticed he had a very nice stavraton that was a very high weight (7.08 g) and an almost complete design. Of course, I couldn't afford it, but it was very neat to see it, because before that I had never seen any Byzantine coins in person, besides the one that started my obsession with it. <img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/21f4ca18-0347-4c92-a2e6-0b32e56f35fd-jpeg.772344/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/bb02f8a3-b906-47d9-ba68-fcf0ccdc74a9-jpeg.772346/" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
