    Consistently, I am amazed at the quality of coins on display here, to say nothing of the photography of them.

    And this one. I will watch the Heritage auction with interest to see what the similar example there nets.

    hyperizer, I don't believe I've seen you post before. Welcome to the forum. Nice coins! Being a Brit collector, I must say that is a marvelous veiled head halfcrown.

    WOW! Beautiful coins and excellent pics! I'm afraid that my coin-photographing skills are seriously lacking, so I won't even bother (plus I doubt if I could decide on a favorite!)
