I never considered this idea. It makes a certain bit of sense, I suppose. Once while metal detecting I dug a 1902-O Barber quarter that had a...

Quarter Master- if you’re reading this, first of all, thanks again- and secondly, I should let you know that I’ve shipped out a couple of dozen of...
@INDE1977 - your Round 8 goodies have been mailed.
PS- what's the diameter, or at least a size comparison between that and a US cent/nickel/quarter? That'll tell us whether you have a farthing or...
Yep, looks like Wood's Hibernia to me. You're lucky you got such a result from electrolysis. That can be risky with corroded coppers. The very...

Even though I’m not usually one of that rarified group, I’m glad there are people out there exploring the niches. It helps our collective...
Here’s his CoinTalk profile. We salute you, @Severus Alexander. Maybe it’s selfish of me, but when my time comes, I could only wish to be...
The Cholas I'd heard of... barely. Only very barely. Kulottunga, never. My knowledge of ancient civilizations has a heavy Western bias,...
Oh- I did once own one of those gigantic Justinian I folles. It had a hole at the top. I paid 20 bucks for it at the FUN show, and put it on my...
