I have no problems with it. There are threads dedicated to certain series in the US Coin section. And besides if anyone wants to post ancients in both threads, I don't see that as a problem.

 

Both are very nice!

 

picked up a few world cheapies...

 

As always => the "table itself" is really the prize, no?

=> awesome coins, my good friend!!

Wow, I am actually "older" than that Canadian Silver Dollar (at work, I am currently far older than everything/everybody else) => so I'm lovin' your coin, dawg!!

:cheers:

 

thanks stevex. :cheers:

any coin older than me is fair game for my world coin collection, i was born in 71.

 

At $31 I do think I overpaid for the Prussian 5 mark.

 

My first peso!


I know this one isn't pretty, but it's low mintage of about 1 mil.

 

Here is another recent pick up. One that I would gladly trade for 3 German Empire 5 marks. - Not sure why no one wants to trade, afterall that is a profit of 199,985 marks... :scratch:

 

and a nice peso indeed!

 

Nope, that was pretty good - But $30 on that 1925F 3 mark is sweet! :thumb:

 

talk about hyerinflation! they were just a step away from minting the 8 jillion mark coin!

 

I was just thinking I overpaid for the 5 mark because it is pretty worn. It does have a good melt value though. I didn't know what the 1925 3 mark was worth until I got it home and looked it up. I was happy. Today I got a 1893 columbian exposition half dollar, my first Canadian silver dollar and a Maria Theresa thaler. What is the value of a columbian exposition half dollar? I paid $12 for it. And do any of you know how to tell what date and mint a Maria Theresa thaler is from?

 

Give me 25 of those, and you can have my 500 million mark note.

I know that Iran coin has 2 types one with a Mustache one with out.buy one book its less than 20.00 ??15.95 Whitman book that will give you the hole World of World coins !!! here what it looks like.

 

A Brazil 960 Reis 1814 struck on Chile 1813 8 reales.

 

I hope you don't mind

 

The Maria Theresa thaler is probably a restrike. Especially if it looks real nice. I have about 8 or so of these. - If it is not a restrike, than as you would guess, it is worth quite a bit more.

Why would I mind? I always enjoy looking at beautiful coins! Very nice! :thumb:
