The $10/map arrived today, reunited with its family. They were in the same type of holder when I bought them.

My favourite Japanese coin ,also, Haven't one with such awesome blue toning though,

Bravo!

FYI those are two different coins.
The upper one, someone tried to clean it, and it only looks like that at the right angle.
The lower one is UNC and looks good at any angle.

Thanks for the medal...nice colours..great definition on the heraldry..

Show is beaut,but can we have the tell too? :)
 
Well, here is the other side. Don't drink and look! The perspective is off.

Herzogenaurach, in Bavaria, home of Adidas and Puma.
"MEDAILLEN KUNST 1000" on edge.

Anything more and I would just be copying from Wikipedia and whatnot.
I have no idea what the 1700 means
Surely not this: "Adidas' new research and design center in Herzogenaurach, Germany, is the place where 1,700 workers develop new products for the world leader in sports equipment and apparel"
:D

Ha ...the perspective is STYLISTICALLY embellished...I like it.

This is how map makers once described the world :)

What 1700? I only see 1500 ;) it's showing what Herzogenaurach was like back in the 1500's. 'Um' means 'about'.
