[QUOTE="svessien, post: 8290565, member: 15481"]Excellent, [USER=26430]@Curtis[/USER] This sounds like the platonic idea of a Danish coin dealer: Warm and friendly (when you get to know him), and 110% business 24/7. Then there are the odd exceptions, like Jørgen Sømod, who would gather his friends in his shop and glue a coin to the pavement, only to laugh at people trying to pick it up. A story has it that one of the «victims» was a wife of a blacksmith. She went home to tell her husband, and laughter seized. Although these guys are not with us anymore, I still think a trip to Copenhagen is a good thing for a coin collector. If only to visit the Royal Glyptothek and see this marvelous beauty: [ATTACH=full]1465414[/ATTACH] (Yes those are aureii) Now I’m going to go through my old Thomas Høiland catalogs, to see if I may have a Holm provenance too.:)[/QUOTE]
