Interesting how photography can alter the appearance of a coin :)

 Angle/lighting can sometimes make a coin look completely different.

Here is what I got as a gift today from an elderly collector I regularly visit to talk about certain coins of ours and all sorts of other things. 1/12 Thaler 1764 A - Frederick the Great

That is a very nice gift and has that additional sentimental value.

Traded $12 for 8 bucks  ....so guess they only actually cost $4, and probably all they're worth. A little acetone might brighten them a bit.

Picked up a couple early Japanese silvers:   Left, 1870 50 sen, large dragon variety (One of the first machine struck coins from Japan) Right, 1871 50 sen, small dragon variety (A small experiment to resolve the horrid striking problems they were facing with their newfangled machines) Paid just over $70 for both.
