Another piece of old bullion

Not ancient exactly, but an off metal strike of the 1807 Hamburg Dreiling in gold. Pretty scarce pieces so I can't complain about getting it in 62.

It will take a while for the bullion prices to catch up since I paid about $20k per oz.

    It's an NGC holder, the coin is tiny, and the prongs are big. Yes, I'm sure it's not a restrike.
