That has to be the most incredible group of coins I have ever had the pleasure of feasting my eyes on. The stuff of dreams.
Thanks for posting that link. Awesome coins. It's a shame our current American coins are so flipping boooooring. Where's Teddy Roosevelt when we need him? Oh yeah...deceased...and the shame is they broke the mold with him.
I couldn't agree more. The gold half and quarter eagles are the only American coins I find interesting. I love the recessed design.
If someone told me I could have any one of these coins for free, I would spend a lifetime trying to narrow down my choice, ending up with no coin at all. Many stunning and rare coins. It's like looking at Veyrons and McLarens. And like them, none are under my tree this Christmas
