Here is a quick down and dirty image I got during my lunch hour. I didn't get all the color by any means but it's a start. I like the color on this one better than the 66.

1847 UNDECIMO Victorian Gothic Crown PCGS PR64

The little chunk of white swill on her chin is NOT on the coin.

    How about a picture of the triplets side by side?

    Sometimes it's hard to explain to people my fascination with coins and medals. But when you can show them a picture of a coin like that, they nod their heads and say, "Oh..."

    I think I stared for about three minutes until I could move. What are the odds that one of the worlds most beautiful coins would tone as perfectly as this one has? I've seen several drawings of this coin that don't begin to capture its beauty, grace, and majesty as well as this real one does!image

    Just fantastic.

    To me, kind of the classic of the Dark Side.

    Congratulations, Cacheman. I can't help but think you will never regret a purchase like that. And I'm glad it worked out for you working with NEN.

    NEN definately needs to find someone that can take better pictures. This one is gorgeous.


    The more you show these Gothic Crowns the more I want one. I may have to sell my 20th US type set if you keep it up.

    Congrats Scott. image I'm sure there is even more color that you can show us, and I agree that a group shot would be fantastic. "Coin of the Month" I'd say so.

    I don't understand why you didn't just have it shipped to me Scott? You did mean to title this thread "MERRY CHRISTMAS AETHELRED" didn't you?image

    Cacheman, I keep coming back to this picture-way too many times! So, I ripped it off as a background and tiled it-kids are pi$$ed but what are you going to do?

    You know Scott? After (repeatedly) looking at these Gothic Crowns of yours, I've come to the conclusion that they're worthy of my collection.

    Please send me one ASAP!
