Not bad, panzerdawg ... not bad at all Ummm, so I'm assuming those 3 threads you just posted are your coins from 600 BC through to present day? (I'll have to go back and check through them all again) ... they're pretty amazing Man, we should start calling you Goldfinger
Actually, Steve....I like all coinage, one thing that is so neat about gold...it keeps its beautifull lustre, even after being submerged in a saltwater shipwreck for hundreds of years. Amazing metal for sure. My Dad got me into this craze when I was eight! Never regretted that to this day...
My Dad collected stamps ... sadly, he can't see anymore so he gave me his sweet stamp-collection (they're very cool => just like my awesome father)
Mine still does, I also have a great British Colonial collection, maybe one day I will sell them to buy more coins.
