Deus Ex Machina   Joined: Sun Jul 01 2007, 10:10PM Posts: 525 | I was just watching an episode of "Supernatural." It was the fifth episode of season seven and in the story, a witch was using old Romanian coins to assist her in casting spells. The coins mentioned were Wallachian ducats minted sometime between the 15th and 19th century. Unfortunately, they didn't show close ups of the coins. Still, I was excited to see coins mentioned as part of the plot. So have you seen a coin mentioned as part of the plot of another series or movie? -------------------------------- Check out my coin photos Want to help the site grow but don't have enough photos?

Plenty movies featureing Kruggerands and bullion coins etc. Robin Hood movies often spoke of "that'll be 500 marks" ...for the King's randsome etc...but I can't think of anything right now that's specific. | ||

A few quotes: “I’m proud of you Shawn.” – Frank “What about me? I knew the exact year of the coin!” – Gus “Spoken like a man with no girlfriend.” – Frank and Shawn: "Those silly coin expos you go to. Do they really have coins that are worth more than their face value?"

I'm now hooked on looking for more coin-related plots. -------------------------------- Check out my coin photos Want to help the site grow but don't have enough photos? Help Identify New Coins! | ||
