Picked this lovely Cent up in a Heritage auction a couple weeks ago.

Type2

Picked this up today.

LochNESS

Huh? Chinese and Russian on the same coin? I read a book about this once, I think... Some war where Chinese soldiers were policing a part of Serbia? I'm going to have to dig deep in my library and find this novel. I think it was "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles"

this came together with the Napoleon Medal

From the Heritage auction last week:

brg5658

A crusty example of a shilling token you don't see too often.

Middlesex, Davis-13

marcmoish

Hey LochNess that Israel 1 Pruta is placed backwards.

The date and denomination is on the reverse - I hate when they do this.

ormandh

Old slab for the Pruta, so maybe it carries a premium? Or, maybe not.

YQQ

an old Dark Side coin with interesting Re-Punches
scarce in that grade and with these properties

Pick this up today don't know much abut it but i bought it no paper work. Can any one tell me what it is? Thanks in advance.

lordmarcovan

England, silver sixpence of William III, 1697

Great Britain, silver "South Sea Company" shilling of George I, 1723

Zohar

Brent what a nice piece - where did this come from? Very cool.

Iosephus

Nice piastra!

lordmarcovan

The piastra not only has a great design, but I like the overall color and look of it, too.

PCGSPhoto

Such a cool reverse!

As for me, I was super busy at the ANA. I did manage to visit the floor briefly during one of my lunch breaks however. Luckily something caught my eye: a Henry VIII groat. I liked the color and the details, and just thought it was really cool.

TwoKopeiki

Nice newps, everyone.

Here's my only Stacks win so far. Phil, or one of his understudies, captured some nice crust on this one.

Zohar

Raw being sent for grading

TwoKopeiki

Nice, Z! Where is this one coming from?

Germany

LochNESS

Some very nice newps indeed, fellas.

Yes. "Pidyon Ha-ben" is a small Jewish ceremony in which parents "buy" their first-born son from a "Cohen" (a member of the tribe of priests; ha Ben means "the son"). The purchase must be made with two silver 'dollar' coins. Hence this NCLT set of silver dollar-sized coins. Basically, they are commems. Most Israely NCLT from this era commemorates a ceremony or holiday.

PCGSPhoto: Nice Groat! I was able to pick up one Charles I Farthing at a pretty good price from Josh @ Civitas and had to settle for that being my only English piece from the show. Eventually I will get pictures on here, but I was impressed with both clean legends/design and very fair price. Just not a lot of good stuff in my admittedly lower price range.

marcmoish

Redemption of the First Born is what that is indeed - size of American silver dollars....many in the U.S. use 5 American Morgan or Peace dollars.

- they are 10 Lirot denom's so the kid can go spend it when he grows up

Zohar

I like the redemption of first born coins. These specifically look very nice.

Not a pricey coin, and extremely common -- I found this little copper quite eye appealing, and I have always wanted an example for my collection to show off the quite unusual inset design.

Cocoinut

This one will be part of my next submission to PCGS. Love these old red coppers!






Here's another that I will soon be sending for grading.

Hi all!

Picked up two.

One of the great coin designers (Louis-Oscar Roty) commemorated on this quarter euro "essai" piece from 2004.

It does not look like much, but this Potosi is tough to come by. Even holed and plugged, it is still sexy. Love the Maxie's!

TwoKopeiki

Really like your pictures of it, Ankur

Tookybandit - nice 10 cent!

A scarce 1/2 taler from german state of Mainz struck in 1732 to commemorate the sede vacante event. Only 200 minted, and this is only 1 of 2 to come to auction in last 5 years. Also issued at the same time were 1 taler, 1/4 taler, and 1/8 taler commemorative pieces, all of which are quite difficult to find.

TwoKopeiki

Nice coins, everyone!

WCG - that Mainz 1/2T is jawdropping!

Brent - very nice addition to the choice collection.
