<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2516243, member: 19463"]Some of them as not so hard to find but hard to recognize due to a fad that went through the bull/horseman community making the dies much larger than the flans. JA's later example is a nice coin with very nice centering on the bull side. The horse is more typical but still not bad all things considered. Below is a bull (left and horseman right which are clearly what they are if you don't expect heads and tails on your animals. For the time being I'm calling it a MaHi PaLa from the 12-13th centuries but matching up the legends to others is not going well for me so I could be wrong. It has so much clear legend over the bull, I should be able to do better. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]535892[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>The same day from the same dealer for the same $4 price, I got the one below which matches MaHi PaLa in Tye (39) rather well. Are they both the same coin? Finding them was easy compared to finding out about them. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]535904[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
