    I thought about you when I saw the token collection in the catalogue. Are you bidding on any?

    The George III copper looks incredible.

    Davisson's always has some great stuff. The prices they usually get on their British and Irish stuff is obscene!

    He has some nice ancients in the sale. I like the Ionian and Phoenician tetras as well as the Philip II tetra.

    Wybrit - I'm considering what I should put bids on. A nice selection of tokens to choose from. image

    There's not much Victorian this time around, so I am passing.

    I have my eye on something else anyway...
