Neat Bee coin..

Kinda cool... I've never seen a coin with a bee on it before. Cheap..But I'm happy. I think it's neat.

Trozau--Thank you. Kind of a neat coin--huh?

This is a great series and my favorite bee coin. I have a few of these and they do turn a lovely dark, dark brown. I started collecting Italian coins of this period because of this fine bee.

A very nifty coin design.!! Nice catch.

I too have one of these coins, I received it as a gift last year from the FUN eyepopper giveaway, ajaan's contribution I believe. It has the most incredible red-purple colour I've seen on a coin.

One of the first coins I ever had. Great coin, hard to find a really nice one because a lot of them were so poorly struck.

Thanks all. I've never seen a bee on a coin so I thought that was kind of neat. I'm going to start looking at some Itilian coins. Some of the designs are beautiful. And thanks again Trozau for the link. It was late and I wanted to go to bed and while I was fiddling with it---poof---I was linked.

Cool bug, Kurt
I have one around here somewhere, but it's only about EF-ish. Not as nice as yours.
