ever see a forum member post and coin, and immediately copy them?

Hyperion

by buying an example of the same coin ?!?!?

I fell for this design when Bruce posted his images of Doogy's coin....

this is a ROUGH image, but I love the coin in hand, the detail in the design is intricate and absorbing...
it doesn't have Doogy's coin's color, but it has great detail, you can see every link in the mail armour and the fur on the bears body

I didn't expect this much detail on the coins devices considering it was sold to me as a lower grade AU...




Thanks to Doogy for being so forthcoming with information on his BEAUTIFUL example !!!

Hyperion

the coin really isn't lilac, my color balance is off....

Man, I love lilac! (giant beer can falls out of the sky and crushes dude)

Beautiful coin.! A strong strike doesn't mean no wear- I assume the lower grade AU stems from the wear on the lower half of the standing figure.

Again, gorgeous!

JRC

THAT... is a BEAUTIFUL coin.

good point, that leg is definitely showing something, I was just so focused on the mail and face that I was shocked it was totally detailed (the glare cuts that bit out...)
