I believe what you so-called experts call Vespasian is actually Kim Jong Il. If you read the text in Korean, it says "Dear Leader, Son of Kim Il...
It can't be done, but if it could be, prices for "common-date" silver would go through the roof. The population of 1964 quarters could well be...
I bought a lot that was described as Abbasid dirham fragments some time ago. Most of them are the standard type, but there's one that's really...
Well, some people were paying $20 for 2009 nickels. I believe that's 400x times face value, and probably 100-200x catalog value.
Great coins! I like that you're buying quality instead of quantity. That's what I'm doing with my schützentaler. It takes longer, but it is so...
I would have thought musket balls were made of lead, but maybe iron?
I don't know, I think there are plenty of women that would rather take the gold medal. I'm no woman, but I certainly would. Now, if those were...
The one before the last one looks Iranian, but it could be something else. Some of the more knowledgeable members will be along to tell you for sure.
The last one is a 5 piastres from Egypt. I think it's 1984, but the date is a little difficult to read.
Coin #6 looks like an Islamic Dirham, I think either Abbasid or Umayyad and probably minted in Baghdad. #5 is certainly a medal. It may...
Is it judgemental to say that you have posted 14 times in this thread, espousing the exact same opinion in each post? If so, then I guess I'm...
I don't think it was a great deal. It wasn't terrible, it wasn't great. The OP could have done better, but it's not the end of the world. I'm not...
I didn't mean you. There's only one person here who's trying to push his/her opinion.
Holy cow. Just answer the question, guys. The OP asked if he got a good deal. Answer "yes" or "no", explain why and move on. I don't see the...
Hey Army, I'm sending you a PM with a good dealer's website that has some encapsulated choice BU 1870s and 1880s Morgans for about $40.
You can get a 1921 uncirculated Morgan for really cheap, unless you want an older one. You should be able to find an uncirculated one for about...
Sounds like a nice foundation! Congratulations and welcome to the world of world coins! :thumb:
You can get a real one for $5-$7. They're just about the most common ancient coin. The only thing that keeps the price from going down to 50¢ is...
Maybe someone should refer him to the Judea Capta series if he thinks Rome was a Semitic empire.
I know of a German firm that makes a good coin cabinet, but they're not cheap.
