Inspired by the recent "I Bought a Pillar..." thread, post your Pillars:

I had a little flashback to when my Dad used to call "pillows" - "pillars".

@Boosibri Those are beautiful! I may be wrong, but didn't the pillars inspire the modern day dollar sign ($). I thought I remember reading that somewhere.

Here's my one, ex. @Boosibri. This impulse purchase on the BST might lead to more in the future, maybe a type set.

These things have some pillars on them. They are all I have.

I just realized I have some DC pillar stuff squirrels away.

The AU ex Norweb coin in CRO would be a good choice.

I really like these coins and would like to get the smaller denomination coins too.
Here's mine, with seller pics. Nice coins everyone. Thanks, Bob

A recent acquisition, I paid out the nose for it, but they're tough as nails to find!

Currently own this one in PCGS AU50. I like these coins a lot, and can see myself purchasing more.

Nice pillars. Here are a couple cobs of mine with nice full pillars; a Carlos and Joanna 1 reales (1547-1553) and a Phillip V 2 reales (1706).

Would this nice marketing ploy qualify?

Here are a couple I picked up in the wild several years ago..had to do a quick check to see that I didn't post them earlier.
These old threads can be tricky 🤔
