Did it occur to you that she would have preferred a real ring instead?

I picked up this gorgeous coin art in 2007 and then had PCGS slab it as MS64. Shortly thereafter my precious was taken from me into a hole.... Not a tidy, clean, dry hole, filled with fine furnishings, nor a warm cozy hole with soft chairs to sit down on: it was an Ajaan hole, and that means filth..

Picked up my first (and probably only) North Korean coin, a 2002 1 Chon for a couple bucks at a recent coin show.

I like the North Korean coin. It reminds me of the autodollar.

I didn't buy this for fun, but the seller is definitely fun.

Hmmm... That may be the same coin I own now (snatched from "The Hole" you lost it in).

Me too. I wonder if that was intentional on their part.

Aw, shucks.

Funky... for fun... covers a lot of territory for me. Hmm...

I snapped up four of these cute little Hungarian denars not too long ago. A VCoins dealer was having a sale. Doesn't take very much persuasion for me to buy these: inexpensive, silver, early-dated, with a cool design... what's not to like?

Good one - I remember when these were advertised in coin world many years ago-I never saw one though. I think they were declared to be illegal, so coin world stopped allowing them to be advertised.

Really funky coin here from Bulgaria in the late 14th Century. I bought this for fun because I just love the colours!

Bring on the funk.

This just spoke to me.....




Gustavus III and, I think, his mother. Gustavus was the nephew of Frederick the Great and a pretty interesting guy.

This is as close to funky as I own. I got it from "Himself" Lord M on the BST. I do believe the man is trying to convert me. He's had me to the front of the church twice now and I've even taken up the offering for him.
