Then, as now, the best way was for somebody to turn them in for the reward. The writing on the lower right side of the Assignat promises to...
This Assignat threatens the counterfeiter with death (bottom left corner) during a time in the French Revolution (issued after 10/31/1793) when...
I could not believe this. https://www.pcgs.com/auctionprices/item/1964-50c/6706/-1985117323252712602
Definitely rare. Check out the population figures at any of the TPGs.
I love junk boxes. A large percent of my coin purchases (by number, not value) have been 5 cents to $1.00 from junk boxes. Sometimes it is just...
Thank you so much for the prize and the contest! As for the raccoons, my friend feeds them. I watch them from the window, and occasionally...
I might have to fight my friend across the stream (and down a bit) on the other side of the woods if I claimed it as my pet. She leaves dog-food...
I want those! He is not exactly a pet, but he thinks he lives here. Frequently helps himself to the persimmons in my trees and (as here) the...

I want that! Thanks for the generosity! I have long found fractionals fascinating. This is one of my first ever. I picked it up for $5 back...

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, in the pictures it could be seen that way. But in hand it differs from damage that I'm familiar with in several...
I found this in an uncirculated bank roll. It appears to have been struck through debris on the reverse under the extended arm. Am I right that...
Nice. John Burgess is just kidding, but in my ignorance had I found it in change I might have mistaken it for wrapping machine damage and sent it...
Not intended to be sarcastic at all. People fairly often will use whatever, including coins, when there is a bit of wiggle that can be fixed by a...
Back to the coin in the OP's post, it was not necessarily ground down in the usual sense. It looks to me as if it might have been used to level a...
Amen to all the good things others have posted. I, too, am a member of your fan club! My most recent arrival, along with a 2019 holed cent, is...
Congratulations!
