    Ludwig II on the coin is known as the swan king, didn't know if that had something to do with it. I didn't know that about the shooting. Thank you.

    I wonder if he/her was the bird shooting champ?

    Tough coin to find straight-graded, let alone attractive looking . . .

    I don't really have anything too special this time but this silver bullion round was cool and from the Irish Assay Office.

    Next up the Silver Fern from New Zealand Mint. I'll have to find one for a resonable premium.

    I wish you the best of luck. I love finding coins with colors like that. It they always have such a high premium. Let me know how it grades I would love to hear about it.
