Results/TrueViews just in from World Economy Submission

Hello all, I am a vast majority US coin collector, but I do like to pick up the occasional dark side coin that may jump out at me....especially when the pickups don't dent the wallet much . I finally got around to submitting a small group of coins Id picked up over the past 18 months or so, and I thought I share a few of my favorites here on the World Forum, which I don't think Ive ever posted in before. All are pretty common/widgety coins, with no particular direction or focus other than pure eye appeal.

Please enjoy and feel free to share any thoughts/criticisms/opinions good or bad....

    Nice. How long did it take to get them graded?

    Why "slow"? This variety is called "quadriga briosa" in Italian -- which translates as "lively" or "spirited" quadriga.



    Yes, the other type is called "quadriga veloce"..."fast" quadriga...but this one is not then called "slow"... image
