I saw this interesting story about Indian silver rupees that were recovered from a World War II shipwreck. I'm sure they wouldn't have been in...
Thanks for the resources. I'll check them out.
Thank you both!
Thanks. I think Guatemala has some nice coins, and many collectors overlook them.
Thanks. That was my guess. I don't have a Krause for the 1700s to look it up.
Here are a few I got recently that I especially like. 1956 Guatemala 25 centavos 1883 Argentina 2 centavos 2015 Colombia 1000 pesos 1942 S Fiji...
Can you help me with country and denomination for these three? 1762 4 pfenning from a German state I assume. 1821 1 heller from another German...
I was happy with the coins I purchased though. I can't take pictures of them all, but here is what I bought and what I paid. There are a few I...
I noticed this too when I started buying stamps. You can buy them for 5 or 10 cents apiece on many auction sites and pay a few bucks to ship...

Besides a few special commemoratives they all look like this.[ATTACH]
Yes, I said most dates. The rare ones I don't expect to find cheaply, but say the 1961 or 1963 which I've been outbid on about 10 times each I...
All the coins in question have a mintage of around 10 million and Krause lists as common values. And no, not looking for high grades. Pretty much...
With the price of silver down, I've been working to assemble a set of Australian florins. I've made good progress, but what is frustrating me is...
A few years ago I picked up an 1883 100 reis from Brazil, with a mintage of 2,700, for like $7. A little later I saw another one for sale and bid...
No, it was too rich for my blood. I wish I'd bid higher on the other one, but who knows how high that would have gone. I'll keep an eye out and...
Since we're showing our 1983 New Zealand dollars ...[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
