Damn, your silver to "other" ratio this year is shaping up to be pretty awesome Cru. Keep it up!

 

[gwdigger]

Man oh man you're pulling some nice denarii out of the ground!

 

[Rick (Nova Scotia)]

Another high grade, and one you haven't found...how lucky is that ?
I may have said before how many things you have found it must get very hard to find a "first".
A very nice coin, I do believe I can hear happiness in the post.
I'm happy for you. I love to find something similar, but will have to be happy with something from 17thC...when I get it.

Hey Cru, were those silvers really that poorly struck or does damage over the years make them that off center? You see some unbelievable gold and silver pieces that were made from that time period and then you see coins that look like they almost had to try to make them look that off centered.

 

[Fitzwilk]

Nice! Just a matter of time until you swing over a big fat AUreus.

 

[park pirate]

Sweet coin..
