Vfox Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Some beautiful additions. There is just something about brilliant uncirculated coppers. I'm a little green about that Italian piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art1.2 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Wonderful coins. I like the photographs too. Thanks for sharing them with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brg5658 Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Wonderful coins. I like the photographs too. Thanks for sharing them with us. My pleasure. Thanks for the warm welcome here also. I'm quite fond of world copper that is Brown or Red-Brown. I love the mellowed and lovely tones that copper takes on as it ages. Here's another coin in my collection that fits nicely in this thread. I'll post a few more as time permits. -Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a nice milk/semi-dark chocolate brown is my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brg5658 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 I love the cigar and defense ones. Truly great coins Art The Milwaukee Aschermann (cigar) token is actually quite hard to find in true MS condition. I hunted for around 2.5 years before I found this one in one of Steve Haydn's auctions (June 2013). Even the low MS end tokens go for around $200. This one has wonderful toning in hand, and the provenance of Steve Tanenbaum is pretty cool -- he's sort of a legend among the Civil War Token collectors community. He was killed senselessly in Brooklyn a few years back -- a huge loss to the numismatic world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art1.2 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Nice coins. I think that I have on these somewhere but I couldn't swear to it. I really like the design. It's very much like the Canadian Large Cent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
