Hey Mont, your pix are getting pro quality! Great layouts and presentation! Thanks Crazyb0  The last one I posted above was taken a while ago. Before I got my Jansjos I believe. But the token I played in the last round was taken the day I uploaded it. I have diffused my lights and then put a clear piece of plexiglass in between my lights and my camera. It seems to spread the light more evenly. |

A bit on the Dark Side in this case I agree. There are a bunch of coins I need to reshoot with the upgraded setup. This is definitely one of em. |

@Mont My comment was really more of a pun because it's a World coin. Your pics are great.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

  For today's offering, we have a medal commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Crysler's Farm in 1813, one of the battles of the war of 1812. At the time, the United States and Britain (Canada) were enemies. Fortunately we are good friends now! This medal is silver, with a diameter of 40 mm and a weight of 44 grams. This is another "match the features" contest. Each element matched gets a point:  A medal Anything made of silver Anything 38 mm or bigger (US silver dollar sized) Anything commemorating a battle 150th anniversary Years and dates: 1813 1963 November 11 or 11th Pictures: Horses Troops Wagons Guns These words: Battle War Crysler or Chrysler Montreal United States Canada or Canadian Britain or British General Colonel Bonus 2 points: If the wording on the medal is inconsistent like on this one. It says Crysler's farm on one side and Chrysler's Field on the other. So this medal would garner 24 points. Closing time: May 17th, 7 pm |

Congrats, Oriole! I got a pewter Revolutionary war medal in a random lot once; can't remember what it has or if it would get a lot of points. At any rate, I think this may be my best: Rome, Emperor Gallienus (253-268) GERMANICVS MAX V  - Silver - Commemorative of a battle - Bound enemy troops beneath trophy Surely I have more than 3 points for some other coin?  |

Would you consider this the commemoration of a battle or are there wagons here for the 6th point?
