    I picked up several today actually. Spent the night in Seville and found some pretty nice, if somewhat small, coin shops. Alot more that I expected. LOL Picked up: 1. 2000 mint set of Pesetas 2. 2 Almohad coins made during the Almohad conquest of Spain (these coins estimeted to be from either 524-667 or 1180-1269) 3. A coin from Seville made in 1664 during the reign of Felipe IV. I am not really interested in pursuing ancient/medieval coins but these just spoke to me. lol Plus the kid liked the square arab coins we saw in the museum and then I ran across these in another city. LOL I am too tired to mess with pics tonight, I will hopefully put some up later this week. It is so rare for me to buy something that makes me this happy; I just had to share!

I am a big fan of 8 reales and have a few from Seville, so I'm very curious to see what your 1664 looks like. Happy collecting!

I know how you feel. Some time ago I purchased a coin I've wanted for many years and still am happy about that.

I love that feeling. My family and friends know when I've got it too because it becomes show and tell time. I usually can't stop talking about coins for a couples weeks too lol

Actually, I got the same feeling when I have my first ever coins that my mom gave to me. Yeah, it was really cool feeling.
