    Not sure it qualifies you for the BFC @Sallent, it's more than half decent an example

    Just because you asked, here's mine, again

    I'm not sure "very very cheap for the type" qualifies for bottom feeding. ("But it was very very cheap for an EID MAR!") Still, depending on what you paid, I bet your renewal will pass muster.

    Tribute 1/16th penny?

    Some corrosion on the obverse but fine style on a huge flan.

    Dude, your coin is awesome!! This is a must have coin for me (some day) , and I imagine my budget will score me a coin very similar to yours!

    Sometimes you buy what’s in front of you when the mood strikes. Is that a good plan? Probably not but the goal is to have fun and enjoy actually holding a piece of history.

    Fair enough. $200 is what it cost me.

    Oh, I know a thing or two about bottom feeding, believe me!

    That's not a bad Tribute penny at all, @Sallent!

    Here are the two I've had. Both came from @Aethelred, a few years apart. Both cost about $250.
