Anyone else buy something nice from Civitas?

JamminJ

From his SSP yesterday I bought this guy:


A unifiace 1729 half kreuzer from Salzburg, looking forward to getting it in hand. I've picked up three neat unifiace coin in the past couple of weeks keep an eye out for my other posts if you're interested.

Anyone else get anything nice?

Not this time, but I've previously bought some nice coins from Josh.

Nice coin JamminJ. I'm looking forward for a complete technical-historical analysis.

Great coin, Jammin. I saw it too, and liked it. I have one of those "hand" coins from Hall. Civitas had a lot of nice coins!!

I spent a fair few bucks - bought twelve coins altogether. No pics yet .... they'll be on sale in a week or so

CIVITAS

See, what none of you realize yet is that you're going to get packages full of washers and parking garage tokens.

In other words your best stock

CIVITAS

No, the best stock is the electric junction box blanks and the arcade tokens. What do you take me for?

I put the line "talk to the hand" in my sig as I liked that line in Terminator III and it seemed to fit with the coin. So yes, talking to the hand is talking to me!
