<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Chris B, post: 26656227, member: 87179&quot;]Yes, I said unicorns. When I saw the medal below, it was one of those times where I said, &quot;I have to try and buy that.&quot; This was part of Stacks Bowers NY International sale. I probably paid to much but I think it is pretty cool. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1700643[/ATTACH] </p><p>GERMANY. Munich. Unicorn Silver Medal, ND (ca. 1905).

Ex: Admiral Vernon Collection. Copper alloy. 38.8 mm. One of many familiar Porto Bello Taken reverses paired with one of three no-portrait obverses. This obverse is employed by three of the no-portrait varieties. This is a beautiful piece, showing problem-free olive-brown surfaces with barely a trace of wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>I didn&#039;t intend to buy 2 unicorns this week but it happened anyway. Please post your coins with unicorns or anything related.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
