While putting up a gallery of known fakes here is not a bad idea, I've heard some say that it is best to post them on some of the established...
Alas, no. Not gonna make it this year. Maybe next. Maybe I'll make it to some other regional show in GA, FL, SC or NC.
Cool! Another Britannia! As @Joshua Lemons replied earlier (in response to @INDE1977's received gift)... I tend to agree!
Huh? o_O S-mints are fun to find here on the East coast, at least. But otherwise, I see nothing unusual about this coin.
Discolored. I don't see anything that looks like an error?
What are you seeing that makes you think it is an error? I see a normal cent with discoloration and environmental damage. Merry Christmas to...

Welcome, Brandon! Nice find. I'm no error specialist so I will defer to the opinion of those above, but it's definitely an interesting piece....
Get better! 48 silvers in a year is respectable, even if it didn't quite put you on top. You've had a good year! What's your cumulative grand...
Ditto to all the above.
Boy, I'll bet that 100-as bushel weight did not endear you to your postal carrier, if it was shipped mailorder! ;) Interesting assortment. I'd...
December 25th has arrived! So here's what was in my package. It was quite an assortment, so no wonder the package was rather heavy! Inside was:...
FWIW, I think it looks kinda nice.
LOL Time to run some contests of your own, I guess! ;) You seem to post more than I do, so you will likely surpass me again.
Just a few days left.
