Has anyone read the Whitman book "In God We Trust" by William Bierly? It seems to cover this very topic and I'm curious what it has to say.
Spinoza used God in a very interesting way: "Deus sive Natura" or "God or Nature." He conceived of God as an ineffable power, a force that...
I think many collectors, myself included, like to think of the "investment" side of the hobby only when their pieces rise in value (i.e., rarely),...
That really doesn't follow at all. I have no idea where you're getting that based on that comment. I searched online to find out the value, and...
Of course not, and I wasn't trying to imply that. I am still going to save a few of these bills for sentimental reasons, especially since they...
Based on what I found online, and the answers here so far, these bills appear to be nothing more than spenders, which is amazing when considering...
My knowledge of coins far surpasses my knowledge of paper money, so sorry for any potentially annoying newbie questions. I have a small pile of...
Unrealistic expectations of true value based on price guides, dealer prices, auction prices, magazine ads, internet sites and coin shops. The most...
I wouldn't be surprised if the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia in Big Rapids, Michigan already has a few of these tokens. Their tagline is...
Thank you for catching that typo. I had copy and pasted some of that text from the 1000 Yen post and I swear that I had fixed that, but I think I...
Following up from posts on the 1000 Yen banknote and the 2000 Yen banknote, here is the 5000 Japanese Yen banknote. Worth $45.39 US as of this...
You really don't do yourself, this forum or the hobby any service with childish posts such as this one. Resorting to name calling and bullying...
I forgot to mention that, as of this moment, 2000 Yen equals US$18.53.
The Japanese 2000 Yen note apparently resembles the US $2 note in that it doesn't appear to circulate much anymore but it can still turn up very...
I completely agree with all of the caution around putting such a large safe in an apartment building. It raises so many questions. How old is the...
Ok, I'll bite. :D 1949 or Showa Year 24 (昭和二十四年) was not a very exciting year for Japanese coins. I don't think that you will find a coin set...
The Glorious Revolution!! Nice coin!
The train wreck better describes some of the responses here. The OP did not bring up saving copper for investment, it was completely assumed of...
I agree that it looks like 1943 as well, but that's probably doubtful. In any case, I love coins that are altered almost beyond recognition....
I know that I'll buy the 1Oz Silver Kookaburra when it comes out, but that's not until October. Before then, I have no idea. I don't really plan...
