[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 20250963, member: 10461"]I'll take the chips (fries), but you may keep the fish. I prefer fish in their natural habitat or in an aquarium rather than on my plate. The coin too is outside my realm, though anything exotic and medieval is cool. Identifying, much less attributing, medieval south Asian material- or let's face it- just about [I]any [/I]medieval Asian material- or heck, even some of the modern stuff- is difficult for me. I've got a strong Western bias in my collecting. It's mostly unconscious and a product of my relative lack of education in Eastern topics, I suppose. Not because I fail to be interested in Near- or Far Eastern history and coins. I'll bet that if that coin could talk, and there was anyone around to decipher what it was saying, it could tell some stories.[/QUOTE]
