Congrats on a nice pickup, at a great price. There are four graded SP68 from the same dealer submission...You may not have lost out! I purchased this one Jan 4th from France.

Scott A 89 posts Report post Posted February 18, 2017 My most recent acquisition is a Mexican 1800 1 Real in NGC MS63. Pretty coin that will join mt 1800 1/2 Real. I think I will try to put together a mint state 1800 silver set. 2 Abuelo's Collection and kidrootbeer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

World_Coin_Nut 128 posts Report post Posted March 2, 2017 This isn't really a recent acquisition but with it being easier to share pictures I figured I would do so with this one. One of my favorite Wildman coins. Exquisitely well struck. 3 Yarm, Scott A and toyonakataro reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richarma 10 posts Report post Posted March 17, 2017 Here is my most recent purchase. It is a MS 62 - 1806A France 2 Francs that I picked up for my Napoleon Type Set. It has an incredible surface which the pictures just don't do it justice. The observe picture does a slightly better job of showing the different colors that dance across the surface depending on the way the light is hitting it. Thanks for looking. 3 Abuelo's Collection, toyonakataro and World_Coin_Nut reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott A 89 posts Report post Posted March 21, 2017 This is not a new coin to me, but I did have it regraded from an ICG (PF68DCAM) holder to an NGC holder (PF66), which I do believe it the proper grade. The coin is an extremely rare Belgian Congo/Democratic Republic of Congo 1965 silver 100 Francs piece, which is far rarer than it's gold counterparts. In nearly 20 years this is the only example that I have found, and I am always on the hunt. If you ever find another one or one of the other denominations in silver, please let me know. 1 World_Coin_Nut reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MARIANO J. HOFFPAUIR 4 posts Report post Posted May 2, 2017 Greetings one and all, Here is an American Numismatic Association 100th Anniversary "Salute to the ANA" 1891-1991 .999 Fine Silver Medal from the British Royal Mint. I believe this is one of their finest coins. The both proud American Eagle and the British Lion make the coin look very majestic. JMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star City Homer 342 posts Report post Posted August 18, 2017 A few posts above I showed a Japanese coin I bought from a European auction house. This is a European coin (Albania) from a Japanese auction that arrived recently. Life is weird in world coin collecting. It's actually the second 'difficult' Albanian coin I've found in Japan, which makes me wonder about a Japanese collector of Albanian coins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
