I do know that Mister T in his area is as fanatical as I am in mine so am guessing he then has sources (as he seems to indicate in his post) for...
Ah, OK then. And what would the differences be between the circulation and set pieces?
Too bad you have that spin to it, but not all of us do. The Franklin Mint made some wonderful versions, especially the 20 Balboas - I like the...
Very similar design and wear characteristics however. And IMO the OP coin is a 58-62.
And words - hairlines - that I already used in two posts. Now here is a “62” by the same company (and the photo makes this coin look BETTER than...
Which might be worth 20x the value of the 1864 as it may be "finest known" or at least finest graded.
Here’s a couple pics as promised : [ATTACH] [ATTACH] 1879 half sov obverse and reverse (even these are larger by 2.5 - 5 x on my Apple 13 inch...

Haven't really kept up with Fiji, dabble just a tiny bit with Cook, but a bit more familiar with Br. Caribbean. The FM issues interestingly...
If it is uncirculated, then it is a first. I would put in that category but know that even at the Franklin Mint (where they did seem to manage...
Think she may have had a bit more going on than the average Boy Scout might manage! LOL The TPGs frequently get confused by these coins, not to...
Pictures please......Proof coins will nearly always have mirror surfaces/fields with the details or devices occasionally having contrast or cameo....
Happy Saturday y’all! I recently found the below coin on eBay - unusually enough it was not in the usual holder of the like-dated proof coins and...
The edge pictures support authenticity.
Not an expert but the OP coin just might be real....
That is wonderful. There are 6 and 8 coin proof sets, do you have both? Seller IMDUS on eBay has some 5 coin uncirculated sets (1c through 50c)...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Hard to see in these photos, but a Guyana 1980 (U) 10 dollar coin has the same rough pebbly finish that the "in question" 1976...
