That's the "loser of a bar fight" variety.
I found out the annual gift limits are $14k per recipient. Also, there's a lifetime gift limit of $5.34 million (which I can only dream of ever...
What were some of the steps you took in preparation?
I recently helped appraise a collection of coins that was discovered in a safe in a storage unit that someone purchased at auction. There were...
The coin appears to have been bent & re-straightened (you can see the crease in the pics if you know to look). What would that do to the value?

That would be my suspicion as well. If they are real, those look like they would probably be middle ages French coins. At least, that's where I'd...
What, we don't have any Chinese collectors? :)
Are you sure about that? I thought most of those were produced holed. I'm having more trouble getting an ID for it than I should though, so the...
Sure did. Had a bunch of Hawaiian / Korean bbq fusion while I was out there. Outside of the resorts, food prices weren't nearly as ridiculous as I...
I ended up visiting Ali'i & got a few coins off of their bid wall (the bids closed last month after my tan had already faded & I got a happy...
