Somehow this got the scratch on the slab between purchase and receipt

 

My first Charles III from change:



He should be CAROLUS III though...

 

My last world coin purchase of 2022. From the 1578 Siege of Deventer. Here’s a copy and paste of a translation of the seller’s listing:
Copper emergency coin struck on October 30, 1578 in Deventer during the siege by the Count of Rennenberg that took place from August 3 to November 19. The pieces were taken back after the siege and stamped to them
to be declared invalid.

The inscription on the obverse reads: "Because of dire necessity, October 30, 1578"

 

And this is my last for the year. It's a Wildman that I have been looking for.

 

I bought a few bullion coins with animals on them. This is the first to arrive. 2022 Gibraltar 1 pound with war elephant.

 

Here are the other bullion coins I ordered. All arrived today.

 

Never realized these things were this big...
