I think I found the monarch year as 12. To me it looks like the 25 or 50 kurus, which is gold, but I'd like someone else's opinion. The 25 doesn't...
Can anyone help me identify this? Most like it's an Ottoman coin, though I know sometimes coins from Egypt or the Indian states can be similar. I...
I've been to a few shows and had mixed luck. In my experience most of the dealers have high prices for common coins. The same coins I get for 25...
I don't know about flea markets, but I do enjoy going to the local coin shop and digging through the bargain bin. That's cheap and you never know...

Are you saying there are two different types? I only see one listed in Krause. I was just looking at mine and the one I have looks like brass....
Mine thinks I spend less than I do on coins. But I know how much we can afford to spend and always make sure we have plenty put aside. Now we're...
