I love coins with ships on them, I have quite a few of them too. I just like how old ships look, almost like pirate ships. I will start off with a coin I got for 25 cents today.

Nice coin, also, never knew that there is already a thread for ship coins. I will enjoy looking through the whole thread
My coin shop's world coin in, he throws in old stuff for me . I got all of those today, along with many other early coins.
Nice, I'm glad you have a good dealer to go to. I'm not a fan of my local coin dealer. He's only in it for the money, which I don't bemoan, but I'm a member of the same local coin club he is and he treats me like he does every other customer.
You are lucky. My local coin dealer is a rip-off. They have a pretty big website dealing mostly with bullion and their prices are pretty high. Their world coin bin consists of a bunch of bahamas proof coins and nothing is less than a dollar for junk.
