It is a 2008 Olympic loon struck on a 4.57 gram copper-zinc Ethiopian 10-cent planchet. Outstanding!  |

Very cool pick up SPP. I like how the beading gives away where the sides should be. Very cool coin indeed.

Thanks for the post upc239. That is a super nice loon. Never saw those fields before, must be a new Specimen strike. Great detail and W mint mark to boot. I do see several hairlines in photo 5 though.  "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

May be my eyes, but is this coin round, or 11 sided?

Looks round to me, but 11 edges on the inside.

That's the new silver Loon that is the 2nd coin of a series. I "accidentally" ordered one even though I am subscribed. Love the look and cannot wait to get it!

That has to be one of the best looking loonies I have ever seen!

This topic needs some love!  Do you all remember this contest from last year?  http://goccf.com/t/422733&whichpage=8#3651611Well, I finally go around to taking proper photos! I have some brand new "small dollar" pages for my Dansco albums, so the dollars had a place to go after being removed from their 2x2 for photographing. Enjoy!  |
