1861 New Nova Scotia I am told is hard date to find that I am still reading up on. Plus 1914 Canadian penny is in a Extra fine grade one less empty hole
Yes ! I do like the coins of India and that area . The Anna goes down to a 1/20 Anna , I got a Bu 1923 1/20 Anna a fellow member of Cointalk sent .me. It's post on coins of India thread. Canadian coins I have collected long time I grew up in upstate New York state we had a lot tourist attractions Canadian liked. Yes I like Canadian coins.
These are my three new silver coins, the German 5 Marks is i think the German archaeological institute anniversary, the Canadian silver dollar, commemorative of the matthew, is the last type i needed for 1939 to 1968 circulating silver dollars. The straits settlements 50 cents i had been eyeing for a while and finally bought.
How do you top your own holy grail coin ??? you top it with a much higher grade. yep folks just got the coin of the century for me. NGC 1832 Belgium 10 centimes MS-65 RB. huge price too . lol seller pics my pics when I get it. I would have sold more than half my coin collection to get this 1 coin. This grade never comes up in the market. It's been 10 years since I say a raw MS coin. I was not going to wait another 10 years go by. doing the happy coin dance now.
Here are four that I just picked up. One is a Sachsen 1 mark notgeld coin from Germany. This is made of porcelain, and I've wanted a porcelain coin for awhile now. The others are additions to various sets I'm trying to complete: a 1949 New Zealand crown, 1911 Brazilian 2000 reis and 1916 Jamaican farthing. The interesting thing about the New Zealand crown is I got it from a guy in Slovakia for only 99 cents, but $12 shipping. Usually they sell for at least $15, so it about evens out, just most of the money was on shipping. However, when it arrived I see he only spent 1.20 euros on postage, so he's not as ignorant as it seemed.
Picked these up today. I picked them out before Christmas but put them on layaway until I figured out how much cash I would have left. 1871 Prussia victory taler 1927F Germany 5 mark, mintage 700,000
German Reich coins...? Just won an auction yesterday - one more person must hate me now, he/she had an identical high bid, but I got the coin
Love that Zeppelin coin! I have a crappy example of that one but a 63, wow. Congrats on winning that one.
