Nice example. I have not seen many nice examples like this and the portrait of Henry has a surprising amount of detail. Congradulations. It is nice to see you again adding to your collection.

I seriously thought about buying this coin too. It has an excellent portrait. I'm glad to see it come to the ancients.info family. -h

Paul....thanks. I was surprised how difficult it is to find this coin in nice condition. It is easier to find a mint condition greek coin. I was happy to see a detailed portrait that did not have the HENRIC VIII portion wiped out. York has a nice one, but this one jumped out immediately at me.

 

Clay..........YOU are responsible for me getting this coin in particular. I realized that the best coins disappear immediately. I made an effort over the last few weeks to check VCoins every 6 hrs. I couldn't type my card info in fast enough. I am confident you will trump me however. And when you do, I will be eager to see it.
