I searched for W.R.L. Company and got nothing. I tried Wilmington Rail Line but nothing there either. Some things are lost to history I suppose.
I should say that I'm not sure if the coins are there permanently or if they were part of a temporary exhibit that changes, and we were just...
What a cool idea. I got the coin collecting merit badge way back when. I'm happy to see that it's still a thing. Clearly that was a bulk...
The forum dad on CCF gets them gone in the blink of an eye, or used to. Maybe that's who you're thinking of. It shouldn't be based on knowing...
There must be a joke in here somewhere about the "ancient standard service." Like the way their service used to be or something. Maybe it's just...
That sounds great. We've been to the coin museum in Thailand, one in Iceland (very hard to find), and the Crypte Archéologique de l'İle de la Cité...

You might be waiting a long time. CO real estate has not really crashed in the last 35 years, just a few small dips. I would like to visit more...

I grade it "I can't believe somebody graded that." You could barely break even on the cost at MS69RD.
I was amused that Jeopardy had a coin collecting category tonight. Here are the questions. They were not picked in order but arranged in order...
Well, this morning's email said it was $885,000 with BP. Now it's a $1,800,000 reserve amount, $2,160,000 with BP. Weird. Can they do that after...
I wonder if their label database had a 10 character limit for that field/column, hence "New Rochel". Back in the good old days data storage was...
Other PCGS slab versions show the date and spell out New Rochelle. NGC and ANACS show the date and spell out Rochelle, but I did find one NGC slab...
There's no date on the label?
Looks like it was made into some sort of clip, like a paper clip. Odd that the top and bottom were squared off. There's a line scribed into it as...
