46 though I am not sure if they will do two Grover Cleveland medals like we got two Grover Cleveland Presidential dollars or will there just be one.

 Had the (non colorized) proof dollar. The half was available at a deep discount to the USM issue price. I follow college hoops with enthusiasm from November to April, so adding this to my commemoratives collection was a natural fit.

Today in the mail, two commemoratives coins featuring a Bohemian and Egyptian composer, respectively, Julius Ernest Wilhelm Fucík and Mohamed Abdel Wahab. For more information see: http://goccf.com/t/375519

At first I thought the composer was both Bohemian and Egyptian in ancestry.

1886-O Morgan dollar counterstamped "Edw. H. Bohlin, Co. Maker, Hollywood, Cal". Edward H. Bohlin was a renowned saddlemaker and silversmith in Hollywood CA and manufactured custom silver and leather goods for many of Hollywood's golden age movie and TV cowboys. https://www.bohlinmade.com/history  This image was shamelessly stolen from an ebay auction for one of Bohlin's belt buckles. They are not cheap. 
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Got these four Indian Head cents from a dealer who does not really check for varieties; just sells coins as they are...  The 1873 is a nicer condition open 3 in date, and then (two!) 1864-Ls since they have a pointed bust, and then an 1860 details pointed bust...
