what does the star signify, if I may ask? I believe the star signifies an exceptional coin for the grade, one that the graders felt was a hair close from the next grade (in this case that would be a Proof-69). The + designation is also used to signify exceptional coins for their grade. |

A bit banged up, but a decent commemorative nonetheless: a 1988 50 Gulden coins commemorating the 300 year anniversary of the marriage of William III of Orange and Mary. Note that this coin was struck in advance of the event.  |

Excellent acquisitions, bd251! All fantastic coins, but that Costa Rica c/s looks uncirculated!

A silver round from Crescent City Silver (New Orleans). Many of their rounds have an anti-Federal Reserve / banking theme. Picked this one up because I was born there, like their work, and it has a sheep! That side of the round has a prismatic surface.
