World Coins: Your Newest Acquisition!

So you like women whose necks are about as long as their faces? But I agree, the coin is a very nice design.

I like woman with nice hair in a long elegant neck, but yes, slightly too much. Just slightly.

 

:thumb:Photo is good !!! but this one must be a Gem the engraving is near perfect!In hand this 1921 40mm must be a beauty !!!:yes:

 

Not many rolls of them set aside during the roll craze that's for sure.

 

Wow that is an absolutely stunning classic French design! One of the loveliest I've ever seen!

OK, so who is posting after this one?

 

One of my newest, a 1955 Irish shilling. Mintage was 1,000,000. Raw from eBay.

 

I just bought an Egyptian 20 qirsh coin. I had a heck of a time figuring out the date. It's in arabic numerals and is a completely different numerical system. It has about .75 of an ounce of silver at .825%. It's a really interesting coin. I'm glad I got it at the silver price.
The bottom number is the date of the ruler started, and above is the number of years he was in power. Mine is 21, or 1895.

 

Got this scarce FAT BELLY condor and was completely black. Restored it and now you can see the nice golden patina with no corrosion damage.

 

El Condor pasa! Nice coin! I have never seen any old Chilean coins, but they are interesting! Thanks.

 

It isn't a new acquisition, but for God's sake I don't think a coin this beautiful shouldn't have been posted yet lol.

 

Nice!

 

Very nice. Look at the toning on this bronze 1892 ZAR proof penny from Heritage. 37,000 US opening bid.

Upgraded my single year 1916 issue 20 centavos 0.45 silver with this nice toned specimen.

 

Ok, so I'm starting to figure out some of the photo editing. Got this one a couple days ago, but haven't had a chance to post it.

 

I can't help but think this is a beautiful woman skewering a very large rat. :yes:

 

Note the obverse die break.

Downloaded photoscape...was just a PDF converter. I haven't figured it out yet, but I will! Plenty of time to do this in the upcoming weeks.
