For some reason, I'm reminded of the Hungarian film Taxidermia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxidermia Perhaps not a film for the squeamish 😄 ATB, Aidan. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Conduitt Posted February 1 · Supporter Share Posted February 1 It's a bit of a paradox. Applicants must have a passion for history and ancient coinage, and yet are expected to lock them in slabs. That's like getting a job at the Super Bowl on security, where you have to spend the whole game looking away from the field. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
