Thought you might enjoy this fathers day gift from my daughter:

She had this unique custom clock made by Mike Rothwell from CoinClocks.

Best present by far!

    I agree. Looks nice on the wall in my den. My daughter is also really happy that she found a way to include my love of collecting coins.

    It seems that for a period of time, IV and IIII were used interchangeably. Check out this 1794 Spanish Dollar of Charles the Fourth!

    Very cool. And the commemorative matches the rest of the clock very nicely as well.

    To me the " IIII " adds more symmetry than a " IV"

    If it's 9:25 in CT what time would it be where you are?

    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
