Unless the color is off on your photo. It looks fake to me. The color is too dark and coppery. Also, the highpoints look slightly silvery. But,...
True enough, but as I recall in those bad old days (60's, and 70's), I think even Canadian coins would work in many machines. That had to be...
I agree to a point, but she was about 35 or so, so I would have expected that she would have known a silver coin when she saw one. You are right,...
I found out the likely cause of the problem of so few silver coins in circulation when I tried to SPEND a silver quarter a couple years ago....
It is a Catch 22, I guess. The demand is highest in the country of issuance, but that also means that the best selection and highest quality...
This token offers a good lesson in judging the age or legitimacy of a coin or token. To me, the lettering is too modern – no where near as old...

How long were they in tissue? I am curious how long it takes to get a good, natural toning on coins. I had a Silver Eagle that I bought from...
Damn, I’m jealous. I have a few of these with Space Shuttle and Skylab metal, but no moon shots. I also have a few that the seller claimed...
One CENT, two CENTS. The “s” at the end of the plural is not an error. As for why the 15 kopek is not the same as the 2 kopek word, I have no...
Another distinction might be to identify some coins as „non-circulating legal tender“ coins. That is, coins which are produced with no intention...
I guess I would agree with most of this. Although, some of my old (30 year old) snap cases definitley have a HUGE hole at each corner. I used to...
