Let's just say one may find places here and there in Great Britain that will accept euros and even USD but you will be taking a decent loss by...
Here's the deal with euros in the UK. The only places that will readily accept them are shops at airports and perhaps at shops located at the...
These are definitely made from metal (copper likely alloyed with something else):...
I'm going to say it is not a counterfeit cent per se but a novelty as it is the size of a coffee coaster.
Past poor experiences and results have taught me that less is more and that some coins are better left alone. These I would leave alone as they...
I don't know what's true or not but some believe it is a waste of time to be sterilizing cash over coronavirus fears:...
I don't think it is understood that the signatures on Series 2017 are exactly the same as those on Series 2017A. The BEP just up and added the A...
I found my first Series 2017A note today in the form of a $2 bill that I received at the bank. Interestingly, it has been cooked a bit on the left...

What you have there is a contemporary counterfeit of a gold guinea. The gold coating on yours has largely worn away. You can see an authentic...
It's definitely a cast fake or reproduction that was possibly made by grandpa just for fun. If it's made from lead dispose of it immediately in a...
My observations are that both coins are likely metal detecting finds and that the top coin is more desirable as it's not been as intensely cleaned...
Those are some good finds you had there from a Coinstar. Mexico uses the "$" sign not to represent a dollar value but a value of pesos. One peso...
I've found these before and have also pondered the significance of the dates. Still, it makes one wonder why 1960 itself was seen as significant;...
There have been verified instances of miscellaneous stamping occurring on currency before the printing process takes place. These are known as...
Bah. Don't give me that rubbish. Perhaps for the other more "popular" areas of the forum it would be problematic but the currency sub forum on...
My good sir, I can tell that you are upset. Allow me to attempt to take your mind off of this matter by stating that your uses of "should of",...
