I think he was surprised when I sent it off to be slabbed and put it in the Eclectic Box, but I had always wanted one of these Lundy Puffin coins, ever since I first collected British coins in the early 1990s. Congrats on those two! They're lovely! PS- note how there's only half a puffin shown on the half-Puffin coin, while the full-Puffin coin has the whole bird on there. I thought that was a neat detail and didn't notice it until somebody pointed it out. PPS- Speaking of not noticing details, until reading the CIVITAS stickers on your pair just now, I totally forgot about the lettered edges on these. I'll have to pull mine back out and look at it (in the edge-view slab, now, of course).[/QUOTE]
