Thanks Peter ... David Sear was also a fan of that example (it has an authentication, COA)

I think everyone would be a fan of that coin!

Have a great, safe, New Year!

Peter

You are the only person I know of that can use images of coins and links to music clips instead of words to have a conversation!

Nice coin Eric, as always.

Nice coin Steve,

Not to worry. It appears to be raining electrum at the moment. I am sure you will find a replacement coin easily when you decide to.

Hmmmm? ... what should I show today?

How 'bout this lil' beauty from one of my other collections?

1000 note from her 1954 series ... kinda sweet, eh? (sadly, not a devil's face variety)

I get nuthin' for that sweet note, eh? (brrrr, that's cold)

Well, maybe I'll try posting another ancient example ...

=> here is a cool AE RR example with a gryphon as a stow-away on the deck of the prow (pretty cool, yes?)
