Getting hold of one of those buffalos is on my wish list, but unfortunately a bit out of my reach at the moment. GLWS 👍

Thought I'd share my modest Lib collection. I've been at it less than a year and now have the beginnings of a date run. Just have to fill in the gaps! Lol

@modofantasma means the bullion, not out as of yet, but hopefully soon.

The Unicorn is out, I had mine from the Mint a week or so ago and my 2 coin reverse set arrived today.

I always try and bring something different to the forum, got to be better than a coin knocked out by big fat Dave in quality control at the royal mint last week, full of DNA on your proof 
Here is a stunning  1068-1071 AD Byzantine AV Histamenon Nomisma  Romanus IV Christ graded NGC AU which may have been in the loin cloth of the emperor during battle 
High grade AU strike and surface 4/5 for a hammered coin of its age 
Lustrous, well centred 1,000 years old of history stunning coin and minted in Constantinople 
£700 posted SD any questions any offers or exchanges  please let me know 
4.31g of gold high purity 
Open to exchanges try me also got a watch and in non pms if someone wants to be creative on a deal
Kilo silver, Vic shield backs, world gold, nudes anything considered 
A coin like this to grade is around 80 quid or so, and try and find one that hasn't been cleaned in the past  1,000 years or in poor condition, heavily circulated with no detail 
How many are left ? Who knows ? 
And before some helmet offers me spot the answer is no, this is not a star wars or marvel coin 
Bit of history to the coin for those that can be arsed reading ! 😂
1068-1071 East Roman (Byzantine) AV Histomenon Nomisma coin
Issued under the rule of Romanus IV Diogenes, Emperor of the Byzantine Empire
During his reign he was determined to halt the decline of the Byzantine military and to stop Turkish incursions into the Byzantine Empire, but in 1071 he was captured and his army routed at the Battle of Manzikert
While still captive he was overthrown in a palace coup, and when released he was quickly defeated and detained by members of the Doukas family; in 1072, he was blinded and sent to a monastery, where he died of his wounds
Obverse features Emperors Constantine, Michael and Andronikos
Reverse depicts Emperor Romanus and Empress Eudocia on either side of Jesus Christ
Numista rarity of - 91 not because the coin is from the isle of Lesbos featuring prince Philip but because it is genuinely a rare ancient coin and deserves to fetch a reasonable price
No lube was used in this listing however inevitably this will change, I'm puckering up now
