Cool! How many of us have one or more of Steve's coins now? A bunch...

Here are other images he posted of that coin, in case you like them better than Pierre's pictures:

Thanks TIF, I am sure he wouldn't mind if I borrowed them! Any news on how he is doing?

 

Wow, I'd like a Steve coin...

 

Still a few left when I last looked.

 

He's doing well .

 

I thought about that one myself pish! Glad it is going to hand around CT for a while. Here is my ex X6 Byzantine bovine!

That's very nice @chrsmat71 I missed that one. I managed to snag a few more of his.

 

That's another ex Steve I've always liked. Glad you picked it up, Pish.

 

O wow Pish!...very nice one and with good provenance too ^^..

 

i wasn't able to buy one of Steve's, but i did buy one because of him & his.. imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

 

For the record: Those things are hard to photograph and show detail on both sides. Of course many of the examples seen don't have much detail on the crab side so that makes it harder.


The hexas are no better.
