In addition to Roman coins, I began a collection of British coins around the start of this year. So, while some of these are not technically...

There have actually been stories in the local news lately about some "very realistic" counterfeit $20 bills going around this area (Evansville,...
Hello all, My sister-in-law came across this interesting $20 bill. It's mis-cut to the point of showing a bit of the adjacent note, but also cut...
We must all be on the same page. When thinking of something to post, my list would have been: 1. Owl 2. Alexander 3. Tyrian Shekel Probably...

I would have to request Option: D) Just send me my damn coins!
I'm a "One Per" type of collector. The only Constantius II that I have is one of the Campgates (probably whatever one is most common :shy:) [ATTACH]
