Ahh, those Philippine coins... (big pics)

I just thought I'd share a couple of my Philippine coins. image One of these has a great provenance. It was owned at one time by our own Clankeye! And he ain't getting it back!!! image

  • Come here, baby! Come to papa! You know who treats you right.....
    Awwwww.... coins. You give 'em all the love in the world and they forget you like yesterday's newspaper.


    I am very happy that coin resides in your collection, Neil. And I will be very interested to see what direction your Dark Side purchases will be taking in the future.

    Nice coins.

    You know Macarthur is looking right... Right at me! And I'm on the right coast. image

    I'm wondering a little about where my darkside focus will take me, too. I know one thing. It'll be a lot more fun with so much more to choose from!

    All coins eventually leave me for someone else. image
