Another Katrina auction win and a very cool note from Bill!

No coins but brochures from the Royal Mint (UK) and the Münze Österreich (AT). By the way, next year's niobium piece from Austria will be dedicated to "European Satellite Navigation" and be issued on 1 March ...

I got two wonderful Walking Liberty halves from a trade with Bobby, and then I went to my local coin club meeting and won a 1922-S silver dollar in the raffle, bought 2 Barber quarters from another member (1902 and 1907) and I bought a 1907-O Half dollar in the auction!

Got the French "Jules Verne" quarter today, and also the Belgian €10 coin from the European "60 Years Peace and Freedom" series. To view images (not mine) of the pieces, click the links below.

BE "1945-2005"

The 1/4 euro brass coin is a little cluttered, but its motto is the "Phantastic World of Jules Verne", and they tried to combine elements from various novels. (The silver and gold coins from the Verne series focus on one novel each.) The central motif of the 10 euro coin from Belgium is Phoenix rising from the ashes, with soldiers in the background. Here is a larger image showing that side:
