Some real keepers in that lot! The Thai coins look very interesting, heck, they all do.

 

Yeah, ended up buying two of these... Would they be considered "crowns"?

 

That is most likely a "yes".

 

I think so, they’re certainly large!

 

This is the largest denominated coin I've ever seen! Too bad it's exchange rate to USD was only like $0.02...

 

I'm not a massive fan of lighthouses, but they're still pretty nice

These all came today, in 3 separate packets. The CIA medal is big, 46.46 grams, 50 mm D. It is also a bear to photo.

 

LOL i thought it was a lighthouse with beams of light shining from it. yikes

 

Very nice image of Athena and her olive tree!

 

New pickup today, gorgeously toned (or, at least it probably will be at some point in the future as the color isn't super strong yet but it's forming)

Bermuda 1959 1 Crown

Huge fan of the horned head on the obverse!

 

Nice yellow rappen to mix things up with the swiss coins

 

Simple, but elegant.
