Great crocs folks. I think I've already posted mine a few days ago only. Even though we never get tired or bored with a nice COL NEM I wouldn't dare posting them again so soon, unless everybody screams out Q
OK, you asked Steve, sorry for others...

I wish we had a utility that would count the number of times a specific single coin has been posted over the years. I wonder if I would win or if Steve has me beat.
I merely like to encourage participation ... sure, my frequent coin-posting may become repetitive at times, but at least the person posting gets a quick response from me and the thread gets some traction ... ... plus, I love showing people my coins ... the real world doesn't seem quite as impressed with my sweeties as you fellas (thanks for that)
No foul intended little brother. I enjoy seeing your coins at least as much as you enjoy showing them.
This is very true. No one else I know really cares about my collection - ancient or otherwise. One guy at work at least pretends to be mildly interested so he gets occasionally shown a coin. No where near as fun as here.
Just a post to update this thread with my own picture of the coin. I reckon it's a little truer to the coin in hand and shows some colour not apparent in the auction picture.
Nice photo, Z-Bro => I love the rugged looks of that bad coin!! (sweet, dark, colourful eye-appeal, my friend) => cha-ching, in my eyes!! (great example) ... man, I can't believe that I let you win that sucka!!? (next time, my coin-friend ... next time)
