What a neat piece!

That gold medal is just outrageous!!

[HiHoAudio]

The gold Schutzenfest medals are few and far between. The Olten came from Rod Moore, and he helped me get this 1910 Bern from a Swiss seller...

 

 

 

I wouldn't mind finding a third for the hat trick!

Fresh from the Perth Mint and arrived today - the last in the Treasures of Australia series and this one will complete my set after grading.

 

The single natural pearl set inside the mother of pearl locket is a different touch to the previous years which had multiple pieces inside the clear locket. Other than the smudge on the plastic capsule, Perth sent me a problem free coin.

That is very cool!!

I bought this for about $26 NZ and thought it was a full water lines coin. But now I have it in hand it turns out to be a 1 1/2 waterlines Arnprior and in much better condition than I thought!!

I suppose that makes the 2 months I waited for it to arrive worth while.

Thats a stunning set of maples!!

[WinstonWare]

Thank you. I love the Viking privy so I just had to buy the set...

[dhbp1967-migration]

Any information on these would be of great help. They were a gift from a tribe in the middle east. I have been doing research for years and have not been able to find any examples.

Thanks

Hello,

Got this 1781A 20 Kreuser a little while ago. It is the KM2069 variety. The folks ATS say it is cleaned. It is currently listed in all the price guides at reported-not confirmed. Does this mean it is now confirmed? How do I let the people who run the price guides know there is one known now? Do you think they would set a value on it?

Thanks,

Richard

Kingdom issue soon after gaining independence from the Ottoman Empire and before the monarchy was established. Here is a scarce coin from the independence period of 1828-31. The phoenix represents the re-birth of Greece and independence from the Ottoman Empire (Turks). This is the one year type with the phoenix in a pearl circle (actually little heart shapes). The series was struck by the liberation hero, and first governor Ioannis Antonios Kapodistrias. His name appears on the reverse. Very Scarce. It appears that the 1830 series is somewhat distinctive. Many are more crude with the planchets exhibiting irregularities. This one was obtained from Stacks Bowers auction #159 in Baltimore (Lot# 10468, Apr. 2011). Sale price was nearly $259 w/fees. This VF example is 15.45 grams and ~ 31mm.

That is a neat piece!

Here are a couple new additions that arrived last week, the French 100F is the piedfort issued for the centennial of the Statue of Liberty and the Canadian is the latest in their locomotive series.

[physics-fan3.14]

Jeff, check the reverse of the Piedfort for a DDR that I discovered:

 

[jtryka]

That's cool! I don't think mine is the DDR, but I only have a 10x loupe!

[jtryka]

Got these last week, a sov and more additions to the trains on coins collection!

This came today from Greece. It will be a part of my horse-themed custom set.
