It was a dated round with a picture of each of that years SQs on it. I guess that is more of a coin commem commeming coins -Bobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stujoe Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Next time you order from the mint, throw an extra $3.00 at them. I would have liked to get that one in the 3 inch model but it's $35 more than the 1.5 inch one I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxseries Posted September 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 My god, when I look at this thread, it seems that the mintmasters haven't lost their touch in replicating the ancient techniques of their own countries ancient coins Honestly beautiful... and possible a cheap way to get 'ancient' coins this way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastcoins Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 Thanks for the nice welcome and if anyone needs help with attributions, I am a full-time coin dealer in ancients and world coins, so I have a fairly good library to look up stuff.

Art Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 I had an Isle of Man Commemorative for the ANA 100th Anniversary. It was a neat crown with a bunch of coins depicted on the reverse. I have given the coin away and haven't been able to find a decent picture of it. When I find one I'll post it. They used to be pretty cheap on ebay - like 7 or 8 dollars.
