Two new Minors for my OCD set

marcmoish

Here are two new additions I added recently in grades I'm thrilled they netted. These go into my (OCD) Obsolete Country Colony Date Set!


Malta 1779 2 Tari in MS63



Essequibo & Demarray 1816 1/4 Guilder MS64

I love that Malta piece - wow!

Zohar

Very nice Marc. Where do you get these? Do you buy raw and submit?

marcmoish

thanks wcg

zohar yup always looking and patiently bidding here and there - no one outlet just a hodgepodge of places - raw and then submitted.

I like these both alot the E&D piece is a one year type with only 43,000 minted - just never found this nice. That spot on the breats is way worse in the photo (not mine). When I get it back I'll re-shoot it. Its a tiny shmutz spot.

The Malta piece is just an uber cool minor to own - NOTHING as rare or elaborate as many of the Talers and gold abound here - just my interest now and budget needs dictate this path.

Yeah, that was my first thought too. But then I think most of us have an OCD set of some sort.


Neat coins, I've never seen those designs before. Thanks for posting them.
