+1 to this. IMO, if you don't have a problem with them otherwise, slow shipping is not really something I'd worry about right now. Even slow...
"Damage" that occurs at the Mint is considered an error, so this should be a gradeable coin.
I like this coin, but I don't quite get how the RPM is so valuable in this case. There are so many RPMs, many of which are as bold as this, and I...
65 FBL for me as well.
Yeah, lol, me too. Here's the description, for when it eventually goes away: 60. NEANDERTHALS, Oog III, c. 40th millennium BC, carved stone...
Based on that MSDS, I wouldn’t expect wonders from this product. It will probably take dirt and funk off, but not much else.
Great post! I don’t have much to add, except that genuine a 1797 1d and 2d have been on my list for some time. (I love big bronze and I cannot...
Nice! Are the Norwegian coins the hardest or most expensive coins, or you just haven’t hunted them yet? Do Norwegians not like commemoratives?...
I’m aware there are some very rare varieties. It’s more of an aspiration than a goal, but it would be an awesome way to collect almost half the...

IIRC from browsing my copy of Overton, 1827 literally has the most die varieties of the entire series, doesn't it? If I ever got seriously into...
Do you really recommend Athena Numismatics, even given the issues people on here have with them? I can't argue with Ken Dorney or GIN though. No...
Super cool. Is FFIVN only into ancient coins, or are his interests more wide ranging? I remember seeing his picture in another thread, and he...
AFAICT, it’s essentially random. I do know that “left” in Latin is “sinister,” but I do not know if they had the same kind of superstitions more...
My cup holder contains literally nothing. Where I live, you don’t want to have anything out and showing in your car, otherwise it becomes a bigger...
I call it a birthday cake, too.
[ATTACH] I don’t have the full attribution handy, but this denarius is of him as augustus, without the name “Pius.” It dates to July 138 AD,...
Yeah, but how much is that in butterflies? ;)
This is the first time I’ve ever seen a coin look prettier in a full slab shot than in a TrueView. Not that the TV isn’t pretty; it’s just that...
Almost all patterns struck after 1916 or so. 19th century patterns are totally legal, because the Mint actually did sell many of them directly to...
Separate names with a comma.
