<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mark Metzger, post: 4432462, member: 86472&quot;]Just before the world was turned upside down, I won a mixed lot of world coins in a Dix Noonan Webb auction. Little did I know when I bid, that the coins each had a corresponding identification “tag”. The challenge was that the coins were shipped separate from the tags, so I have had my work cut out for me in matching them up. I actually had them all identified but then the&nbsp; board they were arranged on got knocked over sending me back to square one. Luckily, I have plenty of time on my hands when I’m not teaching my own kids at home on quarantine or teaching my own high school students remotely. So, here’s my plan: I am going to post images of five of the coins a day to this thread. This will force me to image each coin and properly mate them with their identification tag. My ultimate goal will be to sell most of them (minus ones I wish to keep for my personal collection) to recoup some of the cost of the lot.</p><p>I hope everyone enjoys seeing a really eclectic mix of world coins from the past thousand years or so... </p><p>To begin, we have some Leopold “The Hogmouth” pieces.
