New purchase.

Here is a piece I acquired recently. I was trying to get some decent pics of it and thought I'd share.
Neat surprise in the lettering.

    I was recently there and saw the dome. Wiener's cathedral medals are something!

    It has been many years since I visited Florence. I have fond memories of visiting the Florence Cathedral, Ponte Vecchio, and Uffizi Gallery.

    Wiener's ability to create such realistic perspective is amazing. It almost seems as if the medal must be several inches thick!

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
