    STOP, already! You're KILLIN' me with this stuff! imageimage

    I love that Cavalier d'or. Heck, ALL of this stuff is awesome.

    I've had exactly ONE piece of hammered gold in this vein... years ago. (An AU Francis I Ecu d'or au soleil). Swapped it for a fancypants underwater metal detector which paid for itself, so I guess I did OK, but I still think about that coin.

    Sheesh. Fourteenth century MS gold. You suck.

    Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

    Absolutely stunning image

    I would love to own any of them but I've always wanted a nice example of the Franc a' Cheval.
