It's nice to see that not everyone got sucked down the rabbit hole of modern coins as exemplified by privy marked fake Morgan and Peace Dollars. Those that went with Moderns did so with good taste in design, avoiding the cartoon characters and revisionist history commemoratives. Great gold sets, and those hearldic medals, what a great artistic achievement. This is what coin collecting should be about.

@Zoins Very neat love token. What denomination is it?

Thanks! It's a small piece. It's a dime. Wish it was larger, but I take what I can get!
I would guess 90% of love tokens are on dimes. Very neat coin.

Recent purchase not in hand yet.
I did some very minimal editing to the seller photos to straighten them and make them look less washed out.
From the photos it looks like an absolutely flawless, brilliant coin.

A little bit of focus on the 1899-S Liberty Double Eagle Wow, love the reverse... I should have done this sooner. The obverse is semi-prooflike.
