I have one of these, but it is in poor shape - it was damaged by Bronze Disease; they would make a great weapon, 10 in a leather bag would be near leathal.

I always thought of it as the ancient paperweight, escpecially when you approach the 48mm+ sizes  ;).
Donate unwanted ancient coins to your local schools and watch ancient history come alive!
