    I give away money. I collect money.
    I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    And while you are at it, why not a Reijgersdaal coin?

    When I heard the story. I knew I had to get one! Just imagine if the ship did make it.... The United States could look very different today!

    La Capitana counterstamped revalued 8 reales anyone?



    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
