I know you like horses @brg5658
Have you ever seen this coin from Latvia?




I really liked this design.

 

I have not seen that before. That’s very nice. I’ll add it to my list! Thanks!

 

"Rocking Horse" 1935 GB crown

 

Spanish 1799 2 reales - 7 down 34 to go in the Charles IV set so a long way to go!

 

Some rupees I picked up.

 

Picked up these two beautiful Francs from @tmoneyeagles

 

A few coins that came a week or so ago.

 

I had some success at this weeks Baldwins at St James auction. Picked up 4 medals for my world medal collection.


Commemorative Medals, Old Testament, Elijah fed by ravens at the brook Cherith, copper medal, c.1830, from Sir Edward Thomason’s series of sixty ‘Medallic Illustrations of the Holy Scriptures’,

Obverse: two ravens swoop on Elijah with food, after the painting by Paolo Veronese
Reverse: legend in 29 lines

Diameter: 73.5mm.

(BHM.1468, no. 43), extremely fine and very rare in copper
Brown (BHM) lists the medals from the series in silver and, as are most commonly found, white metal. Examples in copper must be very rare


King Edward’s School, Bath, bronze shooting medal, 1961

Diameter: 38.5mm


unofficial bronzed Jubilee medal, 1897

Diameter: 38.5mm



The Battle of Waterloo, 175th Anniversary, 1990,
the Royal Mint’s reduced size silver reproduction of Pistrucci’s famous medal

Diameter: 63.5mm.
Weight: 153.18gms.
Composition: Silver

I have several versions of the last one. I can't seem to not buy them when I see them.

The last 3 were from 1 lot. The shooting medal doesn't do anything for me so it will probably be moving on in the near future.

 

Just aquired this today...1943 C Newfoundland Dime .

mintage < 104,706 >
Sellers images.

 

Good looking coin there...

 

@Paddy54 - what did NGC grade that as? Lovely coin.

 

I may do a guess the grade on this later....and thank you. Yes this is eye candy for sure.

 

Cool! It’s a beauty! I’ll watch for your gtg!

 

Glad they have a new home where they will be appreciated!

 

I got this. An 1840 Victoria 1 Rupee.

 

1911 Bavaria 2 mark, NGC MS-63.

I've spent some time in Munich and Bavaria, so this one has a personal connection for me.

 

Picked up a couple new toners:

Bermuda 1970 10 Cents​

Great Britain 1983 Proof 20 Pence​

 

Just bought this beauty a 10 cents from the German enclave of Kiau chau.
