So what’s next, Randy? Upgrades? Pursuit of the “all silver” 12Cs? Or branching out into further emperors, since there was of course a lot of...
I agree- and just realized that if he switched out (or added) only three pieces, he could have the even more challenging “all silver” set! Of...
This thread makes me realize I need a true “wolf” coin. Trivia: did you know my Native American name is “Running Wolf”? Of course you didn’t. I...
Thanks. It wasn’t terribly expensive. I used to have no interest in the type, but it eventually “grew on me”, as they say.
Good luck! Stick around. :)

You've gotta hand it to Vespasian, though. He might've died of a fatal case of diarrhea, but the ol' guy still managed to go out with a measure...
That's great! I wonder what "bicycle face" was? o_O Edit: Aha! I had to look it up. That's a great little historical tidbit right there. Now...
That's interesting. Might only be 15 cents there, but it's an attention-grabber (just as they no doubt intended). That at least ensures that...
Nothing there but minor porosity from environmental damage, as mentioned. Spend it.
Hoo boy. Right after I sold a goodly portion of my small stack, of course. :rolleyes: I converted all my raw bullion coins (two K-rands and an...
Very cool lupine coins! I do not have a wolf, but always thought that Pan on this coin sorta resembles a werewolf. [IMG]
