Thanks! As I am sorting through my inherited shoeboxes o' money, I'm finding that I'm liking the British and Canadian coins the best so far. At...
Yep, that's the first coin in my picture. I was going to grab a cup of coffee before starting to explain what the reverse side looked like. :)...
Ha! That's exactly what I thought of when I read it.
Very cool coin!
Add to my "presious" collection, eh? I'd like to see the collection belonging to the person who'd spend a grand on a two dollar bill...

I'm assuming the country of the coin's origin falls under the "comments or grade" section, then. Thanks for the help!
Is there a "proper" way to label these? I'm assuming the coin grade and country goes on it somewhere, but other than that? Does the info go on...
As someone who is brand new to the world of coin collecting, this sort of stuff freaks me out. How do you know you're getting what you're...
