  Bidask, what a beauty! I remember a real nice one in the CNG auction at the 2011 NYINC.

  Hmm... really? Your absolute favorite?
  
  I mean, it's nice and all, but I guess it just doesn't exactly honk my horn. That being said, those are no doubt pretty tough and rare pieces, eh? I'm must confess I'm a bit of a philistine when it comes to SE Asian (and most Asian) coins. You might say I'm semi-clueless.
  
  I liked the 8-escudo you posted a lot more.
  
  But don't get me wrong- that one's cool.
  
  PS- if it has any mirrors visible in hand, my estimation of it goes up a notch. I like all kinds of 19th century proofs.

  Okay. You're semi-clueless. Ha!

  I bet that is a real beauty in hand.....pictures probably do not do it justice.
