tdziemia Pillar of the Community United States 7953 Posts	Posted 07/20/2018 1:20 pm Nice medievals in a few of those recent posts. I like that sharp early Henry VIII portrait! And a long string of spectacular ancients as well. Two of my favorite Lorraine medievals (both gros) from Duke Jean I (1346-1390) whose reign saw the issuing of some really beautiful coins Edited by tdziemia 07/20/2018 1:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
