So about 26 hours before an auction went live, I placed a bid (knowing I wouldn't be able to bid live) on this coin; [ATTACH] At the time, the...
I was looking at some of my stuff, and looking at the 1936 Norfolk Commemorative half, I said to myself; "Self, this has a ton of characters!...
The bluish tinted areas are only seen when a very bright light hits it (like a camera flash), but not really visible under normal lighting, if...
Have at it folks! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Mint marks have been used on coins since ancient times. But why? It isn't an anti-counterfeiting measure, it doesn't add to the value*, and who...
This is in an auction that I'm watching. It is listed as an 1857 Obv of '56 S-1 Flying Eagle. There is a heavy clash on the reverse. What do you...
I got this a couple years ago and never really paid it much attention (nickels aren't really my thing). It's obvious that the obverse is a...

Since my last GTG went well :rolleyes:, let's do another! Here's one of my 1924 Heugunot's for your grading pleasure... (slab is a little scuffed...
Getting back into things, been away from CT for quite some time. I figure you guys need a little commemorative inspirations. Anyway, have at it!...
Spent 10 days in Hungary and Romania, and found a neat little coin shop (place was maybe 100 sq ft). My wife did all the translating for me, which...
I'm not a currency guy, and I did try to find the answer via the magic of google, but to no avail. So why does currency have serial numbers? It's...
I stole this. Seriously. I think nobody knew what it was, but I did. I never thought I would have one of these, and I think there are still less...
