We were in Asheville, NC and visited WNC Coins, aethelred, and I picked up this Gothic Florin. For some reason I love the look of these when circulated.

    One of my favorite designs as well. I have the 1849 example.

    It's a great design. Have a 1887 example in slightly better condition. Part of my 1887 British type set.

    The pardon is for tyrants. They like to declare pardons on holidays, such as the birthday of the dictator, or Christ, or the Revolution. Dictators should be encouraged to keep it up. And we should be encouraged to remember that the promiscuous dispensation of clemency is not a sign of political liberality. It is instead one of those valuable, identifying marks of tyranny.
