<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 7946024, member: 112&quot;]Darek it&#039;s been so many years since I found that info that I honestly can&#039;t remember what book or article I found that info in, nor can I recall the coin&#039;s type off the top of my head. But if I recall correctly, and I think I do, Grierson was the source. Unfortunately I no longer have any of my books on the subject as they have been sold or given to younger collectors so that they may further their own knowledge.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for what I have said in this thread, yeah, it&#039;s all old info, but it was accurate when I said it - based on available sources at the time. And I am all too aware that things have changed since this thread was originated, and close to 10 years since I last added to it. Since then I have become aware, and so have numerous others, that there are lot more examples of this previously listed as a very rare coin out there. I haven&#039;t exactly been counting them up for the last 10 years but I&#039;d guess that by now the count is up to about 20 or so examples that I have seen. And I believe there are a couple of new varieties as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>As I&#039;m sure you&#039;re well aware Darek, I haven&#039;t actively searched for specific coins or actively tracked auctions in quite a few years now. About the only ones I see any more are those I run across by chance and those my students send to me and or ask me about. Much like I did with you for many years. </p><p><br /></p><p>Oh I still keep on learning on pretty much a daily basis but I don&#039;t do all the research and work I used to do Darek. I handed that job off to you and a few of my other students some years back - the next generation if you will <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I add what I can if and when opportunity presents itself and will forever continue to share the knowledge I have garnered over a lifetime with others. For me, that is and always has been what it&#039;s all about. But I&#039;m downright positive you already knew that too <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
