    They have some very nice coins and the prices aren't too bad!

    That's the first I've seen. Pretty impressive coin. I have a Canadian Jack Pine proof coin, and some Canadian large cents.

    Yep. It starts with a little Greyside stuff. A little innocent Canadian coin accumulation is harmless, right?

    Then, next thing you know, the British stuff starts to look good. After all, it's not that different from the Greyside stuff. And the Britannias make ASE's look dumpy...

    Then, your feet are fast on the road to perdition. A one-way journey into the joyful gloom of ...

    Russ, better watch it because you'll be a bad influence on KlektorKid.

    I like the rev of those the queen is nothing much to look at but I suppose the mint engravers did the best they could with what little they had to work with. image

    here you go paigowjohnny, here's my version of the Davis Strait dollar. I picked it out of around 40 or so of them for $8. It is an incredible looking coin, and one of the few that I think have a shot at pr70 dcam.

    Pretty neat coin Russ. I think the Britannia's are also a cool series. But lordmarcovan is right. We're treading on dangerous ground here!image
