No idea. Old posting habits maybe?

 

I like the segregation. not saying I don't like ancients I just like them separated is all.

 

What a coincidence - I have one of these as well:

 

One of a lot of 5 that arrived yesterday. I conservatively grade it at AU58. Of course, it looks better in hand, lot of mint luster and no sign of cleaning.

 

New Zealand.

 

A small lot of some fairly inexpensive common coins arrived today and the seller threw this in as a gift. I was surprised when I looked at the listing in KM. A very nice gift considering what I purchased.

 

Cool cast 4 falus from Morocco, 1871. Nice condition for the type as well!

 

This is a little more modern than what I typically purchase but I have admired this design for quite a while. I was perusing the Triskeles auction yesterday because I wanted an ex Benjamin Bell piece and this was one of the few I had an interest in.

From the Estate of Benjamin R. Bell.
