I may do this. Owls are one of my favorite animals, and I have just discovered that there are lots and lots of coins from all over the world with owls on them. Some are just common currency coins, others are very exotic... Edited by scottk 12/07/2014 11:46 am Report this Post to the Staff

jdmern Pillar of the Community United States 1949 Posts	Posted 12/07/2014 12:02 pm An owl type set would be very neat. Some very nice owl designs on Greek coins. I have a nice stash of bear coins and crocodile coins, but nothing I've actively worked at, just nice designs I've put aside going through lots... I do know of a collector who has out together a nice type set of animal coins, some fairly obscure animals can be found on some moderns Boardwalk Numismatics http://stores.ebay.com/jdmern/ https://boardwalknumismatics.com Report this Post to the Staff

scottk Pillar of the Community United States 767 Posts	Posted 12/14/2014 09:03 am Ok folks, I have begun my owl coin collection. I started off with this. It cost $3.25 including shipping. It is a Slovenia 20 stotinov. I think the little owl on it is terribly cute. He's like "what you never seen an owl on a coin before?
