A: one side has queen victoria and the other a man on an unsaddle horse with the date 1892


. He does not appear to know the coins. Wonder if it a sale for someone else. He won't get my photo business

Typical antique dealer. Not the worst pic ever, but definitely worthy of Honorable Mention. After all, you could recognize the Helvetia design from the picture, though it was sideways and blurry. I've seen some auctions where you couldn't even tell what the item was, be it a coin, a slug, or an Oreo cookie.
