For us low end collectors. I like the colonies.

I don't know if this will work or not it's been a while.

The French do have nice designs. Here is one I like.

  • I'm surely low end LOL! And I enjoy seeing low end coins as well as the expensive coins (window shopping aka Dream coin). Hopefully I will be able to splurge once every 3 to 4 month on a upgraded coin, I'm just speculating. But between that time low end is where I’m at. And the coin you posted is a decent coin. A coin I’ve never seen before.

    Yep, but my icon coin isn't actually mine! image I stole it from Jeremy's (airplanenut) auction of French essais. image

    I'm more of a low-end guy myself. A long time ago I tried to revive something like Jester's challenges, just where we actually get to see coins here, regardless of plastic. It was the VTS, or Virtual Type Set. I did one on French aluminum pieces, but it looks like the pics got lost when I switched servers recently. I'll try to get those back up, maybe even start a new VTS image
  • Ya spoon, I'd like to see the type set.

    rhound; those German Marks are nice too!

    Madame; the nice thing about the darkside, is , you don't have to spend an arm and a leg on a nice coin.

    DesertRat; thanks for the help.
