That’s a handsome looking setup. I use those albums and pages, too, when my coins aren’t in the safe deposit box.
Since I’m eclectic and all over the map and dabble in a little bit of everything, there’s probably not much I could post that would surprise you....
Button, is the first thought. Could have been a “whizzer” or whirligig toy, too, though.
Not fake. Nice “box dollar”, actually. Likely worth more with that alteration than a circulated, unaltered 1888-S dollar in that condition would...
One time I saw a Pilgrim half in an ACG holder described as a “1920-D”, as if the “D” designer’s initial on the coin (for Cyrus Dallin) was a...
Ahh, good ol’, bad ol’ “Accu”grade. We sure used to poke fun at them on the PCGS forums, back in the day. Funny, I look at these kind of...
How about some love tokens done on key date Seated dimes, from my old date set? 1879 Key date. Rare; exceedingly so as a love token. "A" and "J"...
Old thread resurrection, just… because.
Entry post. If my entry wins, send the prize to @Mr. Numismatist, whose lucky sixpence happens to be from my birthyear. Here’s a Victorian...
I do know what scrapple is, and I’ll give it a hard pass, so no thanks. To be fair, though, I’ve not tried it, and if you slipped some onto my...

And doubling in your post, as well. LOL You’re not alone- the server has hiccups.
A siliqua for 20 bucks?!? Big win!!! Who cares if it's rough- that was a cool cherrypick! I can see how it would have been overlooked in a pick...
Regardless, you've dug a splendid find there, sir! Alas, I am not specialized enough to be able to help with English hammered silver...
I think it could be, but I'm not a specialist, so don't take my word for it.
That's cool. Finding the right buyer for it and a way to ship it carefully without breakage will be the tricky part. (Oh- PS, off-topic) I got...
The forums have been a little hiccupy lately, too. It's not just you. Lots of folks, me included, have had double- or triple-posts happen. But...
I agree
A lot of those fantasies were struck by known entities (Coincraft, et al), with mintage records, and many are even listed in the Krause Unusual...
That’s been the case with most of those I’ve seen. I would imagine those holders themselves are around 50 years old!
