    Nice eye appeal, love the Gothic Florin design.

    That went Proof63+. I have seen one other in all the years I have collected, but would still trade it straight across for a currency "business strike" in the same grade!

    Thanks, I was so lucky to have gotten it before the costs for such went ballistic. I don't know how people afford coins of this caliber anymore.

    Yah. Beautiful. I have an 1887 example, but certainly nothing like that beauty. Thanks for posting.

    The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.

    A proof 1887? That would be very rare as well...
