Miz Moneypenny, I surely thank you for all the lessons. I'd like to learn more aboot the little things in the shields, like the Navarre thing. If I understand correctly each little thing on the coin had something to do with some conquest or territory and then they changed the shield on the coins. Is that about right? I'm still trying to figure how these young divers could see a coin with only half of a shield design and tell me which king it was.

Well Miz. Moneypenny you have made my lucky piece just that much more special now I know the history. Thank you for your time. Im very interested in the shields of the coins. Our divers would scrub on a piece and tell me all sorts of things and it was a mystery how they knew. I'd like to laern more about this and Im looking forward to your lesson.

Miz Moneypenny,
I have really liked following this story. I ahve an old coin I've carried for years and I wonder if you would give a littel look, please? I know its spanish and its a two real but not much more. One of the kids on the tug did the picture for me. Id really appreaciate it.
thanks,
Dave

Ms Moneypenny how do you identify a coin that has no date and only a partial Shield? How do you identify those little coins with only partial stamps?? Curious as to how it's done,
Dave

They actually had engineers that good? And machine shops?
I'm amazed.

King Arthur was real? I thought that was just a story.

Well, I been standing outside and lookin' at you fellers for a while now. Sems like you're on the square so I'll ring in. Don't usually stick me nose into officers affairs. You put up some really first class intel an I'm enjoying the read and what your doing.
Be in touch,
Dave
