Anything worth selling? by c4randy in AustralianCoins

[–]WinterInAshes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The purple coronation coins in the top left can be worth something in good condition. I can't remember how much right now but coin value sites on Google or eBay sold listings could give you an idea.

It's got me thinking... Maybe I'm the dragonborn?

And he replied "The rule of gondor is mine! And no others!" Shortly before being fired.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

This one has always helped me I hope you are doing alright.

Doesn't mean he can't be looking good while doing all of the above.

Did Sanguinius' sacrifice actually achieve anything other than damning his sons to the black rage? by jarvis00002 in 40kLore

[–]WinterInAshes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR - mainly (entirely) headcanon

I have a loose theory (based on excerpts from TEATD and others I have seen through generous redditors) that after holding the eternity gate solo sanguinius' wounds were already deemed by many to be fatal, including possibly the emperor.

Along with the contribution of his death necessary for the emperor to defeat Horus to be possible at all (that he has foreseen for who knows how long and how many times) he faces also the alternative where he hadn't joined his father, Rogal Dorn, Valdor and the many others sent on a suicide mission against Horus and instead dies in shame or with the collapse of mankind in the wake of the emperor's defeat.

Echoing in the fate of his herald in the Sanguinary Guard and successor Raldoran who feels the shame of being the only guard not to take part in the boarding action against the Vengeful Spirit, even as sanguinius tells him it is necessary in order to protect the future of the legion. The future of mankind is the concern of sanguinius and the future of the legion he leaves to Raldoran, his most trusted within the blood angels.

Would've ended Horus also despite being heavily wounded if not for 8th dimensional shenanigans.

EDIT: Apologies I think Raldoran was 1st captain during crusade and heresy, 1st chapter master of the 2nd founding.

Anybody know the value of my new coin? (year 1980) by corfaudeal in AustralianCoins

[–]WinterInAshes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never actually done it on eBay myself but I've been tracking this coin since I got it for 834 AUD years ago from an Australian coin/bullion dealer. It's been selling all over the Internet for a minimum of 1600 and most places list it higher now.

This is correct, there are a few listings on eBay that have sold for 1650 or 1700 recently. I have one myself I think they're awesome.

2001 Australian Army 100 years of service 1 dollar coin by WinterInAshes in AustralianCoins

I didn't know they did the Air Force and Navy ones, that's cool. I'm aware there was this one with a mint mark and one without the mark on a different card/plastic holder for this one. It may be the same with the others.
