Panama silver 20 balboas - was massive.
Sounds like alot of extra work to me, especially if they are also going to be in pages. As for the tape, BAD idea. I have doen it myself in the...
Is this that "fanam" thing I always se advertised? Nor sure how you authenticate one since they are so osmall and simple.
There are a lot of fake 1913s around - including some old ones. The family that had the recent disovery was told previously that it was fake,...
If he tells you, he will have to kill you. But, you asked......
Oh yeah. I am in Germany and they use the oak leaf. Guess that makes sense - "strength" over "peace". They wouldn't want to use the olive leaf...
What kind of box was this in where it got no toning? Amazing looking, in any event.
Mostly damagaed coins to me - no real Mint errors (although I am not sure what is up with the nickel).
Those wimps. I bet if we designed it today, the eagle would have a machine gun in his claws and a big knife in its beak.
This seems like a loser's game. Back in them days a few cents was real money, and the one reale SHOULD have ben worth 12.5 cents, and the 1/2...

Thanks for the first-hand reply. The joke is, I would buy these for 40 cents as a keepsake, for reference, etc. If they just said they were...
Might be an oak branch, symbolizing peace. I just realized, though, that there are no arrows in the eagle's claws on that coin. Maybe that is...
I'm still not convinced on this one. The details are fully struck, so the coin was flat when it was minted. It got bulged later. Could be...
BUT.....even if it is fake, thanks to the marvels of eBay, it woul dprobably still bring $25 or $35 as a fake. I've seen it done before.
Why is it black in that area. Blowtorch from soldering on a "D"???? I am no expert. That is why I would never buy a such popular rare coin...
I just saw an auction on eBay for a 1937 Reeded edge Buffalo nickel in an SEGS holder. The listing states that in that year at some coin show,...
For my money, I would stay away from these concocted “collectables”. Some of the silver producers make rounds with designs similar or almost...
