I haven't really been actively collecting recently but I haven't lost interest completely ^^ I was thinking to maybe make an electronic catalogue of my collection but chose instead to do a small video series looking at some of my coins.

The first part is just a brief overview of my favourite folder of 2x2's... but I will do a video of each page going through each coin in more detail. Hopefully it will be of interest to you guys, since the end of the smackdowns we don't get a chance to show off pieces so much unless they are new in. Some of you will recognise some of the coins from those friendly competitions.

I will put each new video up in this thread as I make them... probably one or two per week...

Super collection

Those beautiful Greek coins are something I definitely don't have yet... may have to put one on the radar one of these years...

Also your Chaulukya drachm is in the holder upside down

David! You have a voice! And hands! I never suspected.

Great vid and exceptional collection. Looking forward to the follow-up entries. Can a vid of your watches be too far behind?

Some of my individual watches are on my youtube channel, and some silver items too...

I am not getting many views and am not overly bothered if I do, but I decided I would try and make some video's about some of the items I find interesting. Also I have been attending antique fairs and exhibitions of late so I might even make some about interesting items I come across there...

Well spotted Finn about the Chaulukya drachm, I am a philistine though, I would hang an abstract painting upside down too.

The desk is actually a large chest which is where I keep my goodies.

David, what a great collection of Greek silver, and a wonderful series of vids. Your love for the coins and their history really come through. I can easily imagine a non-collector getting bit by the bug while watching these. Thanks for sharing.

And thanks also for the shout-out in the last vid!

David you have a fantastic collection. I can only dream of owning a collection like that. Congratulations. I love you carved chest, for many years I was a collector of Asian art. My area of interest was Japanese Swords and Woodblock prints. I had a few carved boxes that like you would store my goodies. Sadly they are all gone except for a few swords that I kept.
