<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tiki, post: 324640, member: 11911&quot;]Aloha Folks -</p><p><br /></p><p>Wanted to share with you the ancient coin &quot;that started it all&quot; - the wedding gift from my lovely wife!&nbsp; 10 years ago she gave me this - the star of my collection.&nbsp; I&#039;ve attached photos of the dealer&#039;s card as well to see if any of you know him, and if you could tell me what the &quot;BRUA&quot; on the lower left corner means.&nbsp; Can&#039;t tell you how much I love this coin - simply beautiful.&nbsp; A work of art you can carry in your pocket!</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/Athens1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/Athens2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/Athens3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/Athens4.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have a question for the pros on this forum:&nbsp; For a long time I&#039;ve pondered sending this off to David R. Sear for authentication.&nbsp; Have any of you done this?&nbsp; Would you recommend it?</p><p><br /></p><p>I also wanted to add a shot of another collection favorite - a medal I found at the Hawaii Collector&#039;s Show a few years ago.&nbsp; Got it for $10.&nbsp; I simply love the Angelic &quot;Hoover Lady&quot; drifting down from Heaven to save the poor housewife from the broom lying at her feet! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/hoover1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.geotiki.com/stuff/hoover2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Hope you enjoy seeing some of my coins as much as I&#039;ve enjoyed reading about everyone else&#039;s!&nbsp; And thank you in advance for any info regarding David Sears authentication.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mahalo,</p><p>Henrik[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
