I could not afford it outright so traded for the Paget 1926 Great Britain patterns for the upcoming six silver denominations, including the Peace...
LOL, well a personal museum of sorts. I only wish the seller had "dumped" them all at once because they went cheaply and then subsequent sales...
The first two look to be hubs that are used to create the dies and so have a positive image in relief, not recessed like dies, similar to the...
Here are a few to look at, first the obverse and reverse hubs of the One Centimo and then dies for the 1/4 and 1/2 Balboas, all dated 1982:...
Absolutely none. Wonder who is there grading?
Not as good as the 6th Edition & there were two editions of the 7th produced. One with appendix and citations of coins listed (or not) in the main...

Extremely poor rendition with very mushy detail and esp on the bird of paradise. Then banged about w some other coins most likely. Probability of...
As much as I love the Ws, they really are not "investment" coins. After the first set of decent looking coins, I think that might be it. They will...
Yes, actually near to blinding for a 40 year old copper nickel coin. The marks in hand look less pronounced.
PCGS graded it 65 BTW; I think sometimes they barely look at these and tag the grade on there. I am still of the opinion that this is a pretty...
Really only 0.2769 oz. Thanks BTW Happy New Year 2024
I realize not many hear care for the Franklin Mint (FM) but I have really liked their COINS (NOT the model cars, Michael Jackson faux dance...
