THANKS FOR THE ANSWER SIR GEORGE ----PLEASE LET US KNOW IF YOU COME ACROSS ANY MORE AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SELL OR TRADE ANY YOU HAVE I WOULD LIKE TO OWN ONE...
MACKINAW POSTED A WEBSITE WHERE YOU CAN ORDER SUCH A COIN IF YOU WISH TO ADD THAT TO YOUR COLLECTION---I ORDERED ONE TO SHOW OTHERS AND TO STIR UP SOME DUST AMONG A FEW OF MY COIN CLUB MEMBERS...BUT THAT IS MY CHIOCE...
I DO NOT THINK THAT WE SHOULD GET MIXED UP IN THIS VENTURE---GRANTED DAN MAKES GREAT COINS AND MEDALS AND IS CERTAINLY A NUMISMATIC ARTIST----I DON'T THINK THE CONTROVESY WOULD DO OUR FORUM ANY GOOD AND WOULD JUST PULL OUR GROUP INTO ANY PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE----IF PEOPLE WANT TO COLLECT HIS WORKS ,THAT IS ONE THING --BUT I FEEL WE SHOULD STAY NEUTRAL ON THIS..........
JUST MY OPINION.....YOUR FRIEND AND SERVANT............THE TEMPLAR
I PICKED UP SOME COINS AT A COIN CLUB LAST NIGHT BECAUSE THEY HAD LIONS ON THEM........THEY ARE BOTH FROM BELGIUM .....SO I SCANNED THEM FRONT AND BACK....I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE BEEN SHOWN.......
VERY IMPRESSIVE ARRAY OF COINS BUT THE ONE FROM PARAGUAY CONFUSES ME AS THERE ARE NO LIONS IN S.A.------JAGUARS AND BLACK PANTHERS MAYBE----ALSO IS THAT COIN FROM PARAGUAY MADE OF GOLD
MY UNCLE TRACED MY FATHER'S FAMILY BACK TO ENGLAND IN THE 1500'S AND FOUND A COAT OF ARMS OF OUR FAMILY AND IT BEARS 3 LIONS RAMPANT (STANDING) SO THE LIONS ARE USED IN ENGLAND THAT FAR BACK---AND THIS IS AFTER THE CRUSADES SO THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A CHANCE TO SEE THESE ANIMALS WHEN CRUSADING...IF I CAN FIND THE COLOR COPY OF THESE ARMS I WILL POST THEM....BUT FOR NOW THE SCANNER WILL HAVE TO DO THANK YOU .........THE TEMPLAR
I AM NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED WHEN I TRIED TO ANSWER YOUR POLL BUT OVER ALL THEY LOOK ABOVE AVERAGE BUT I WOULD HAVE TO SEE THE BACKS TO BETTER TELL WHAT GRADE THEY MIGHT BE..........1993CC IS THE ONE THAT SHOULD BRING THE BEST PRICE IF SELLING AS IT IS THE RAREST OF THE CCS -----VERY NICE SET OF MORGANS ........THANKS FOR SHARING.... YOUR FRIEND AND SERVANT.........THE TEMPLAR
GOOD TO SEE YOU ON LINE AGAIN---IT HAS BEEN AWHILE
THAT IS PROBABLY TRUE PYW THAT THE ROMAN INFLUENCE BROUGHT MANY THINGS TO THE FAR REACHES OF THEIR EMPIRE......LONG BEFORE THE EUROPEANS SET OUT ON THEIR EXPLORATIONS---I KNOW THAT THE LION RANGED INTO THE MIDDLE EAST AND ARE PRESENT IN INDIA TODAY....AMONG THE NATIVE AMERICANS IT WAS THE BEAR THAT HELD MOST OF THE ESTEEM.....FOLLOWED BY THE OTHER ANIMALS........
BEAUTIFUL COINS BUT I AM VERY CONFUSED AS TO HOW MANY COUNTRIES HAVE USED LIONS ON THEIR FLAGS---COAT OF ARMS----COINS AND YET THEY WERE PUT ON THERE LONG BEFORE THESE COUNTRIES HAD CONTACT WITH AFRICA AND ACCESS TO ACTUAL LIONS.........CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT ON THIS QUERY
