Fun facts about Carlos III ( The man on the coin ) that have surprised me and did not know very well ... :read2:
1 - This coin is of the same year that he died 1788. :-\
2 - It was uglier than a cow in his arms ..... but very intelligent. :laughing7:
3 - In association to the emancipation of USA (says Wikipedia) and explained below:

A little coin but great stories it holds. :wink:

It was 5 last year & 1 to Dad, so 6 for the team last year :) (maybe you were thinking of Celtic Gold Coins (3) or Georgian Gold Coins (3).)

6 in one year,

No offense, Hispan. My wife is Mexican. I'm fairly fluent in Mexican Spanish, but I responded in Catalan to see what the difference in language would be. (A lot of us know how translate any post into whatever language on here, so many people understand it) Once again, great finds, and anything that doesn't meet your standards, send my way. I'll pay postage.
