Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 09/17/2009 9:08 pm Very nice! This one has a rather interesting golden color. Is this the color of the actual coin or just how it came out in the scan? Report this Post to the Staff

Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 09/17/2009 9:41 pm Zohar444- haha, yeah I should have been a bit more specific. I just meant to ask if it the golden tone truly was this bright and actually seemingly only is on the fields of the coin. If so, then this really gives the coin a very wonderful aesthetic based upon the contrasting silver color of much of the relief design of the figures on the obverse and the intricate coat of arms on the reverse.
