[QUOTE="sylvester, post: 77521, member: 708"]I'd use it as a pocket piece. I really love coins like this because it means i get to throw them around and fool about with them. Flip them, chuck them in my pocket. And with the sentimental value too, well you've always got a member of family around with you. Some coins are for selling, some are for keeping. Some are for collecting and some are for fun. Buy a pocket watch and chain and use it as a fob piece. At least that's what i'd do! :D Actually i've been carrying a very battered and worn British Charles II gold half guinea (from the 1670s/80s) around with me for about a year now, if you think silver sounds nice... oh boy. (i also carry around a 1697 silver halfcrown with it) If the coin was in Fine condition then you'd be looking at what a $600 + coin. Heading up to the thousands for one in EF. You can't really have much fun with one of those can you? Thus finding one in Poor+ (now poor-) was a blessing![/QUOTE]
