Neat. I see you're into World coins. Shoot me a PM. I might have something for you. Also, you might want to enter my latest giveaway.
Say, I like those CoinTalk badges you are wearing in one photo. Makes spotting CT-ers easier. I relied on my "Holey Coin Hat" for folks to...
I'd love to go to NYINC sometime, but it's rather geographically distant. I understand air travel hasn't been the smoothest experience for folks...
Very sharp Herennia Etruscilla and Trajan Decius pair! Nicer than the examples I had in my first Roman collection (ca. 2007), of them and their...
What a magnificent painting! I love the "coins in old paintings" genre, but that's one of the best I've seen yet. I just finished a book on that...

I agree. If you're going to use Latin abbreviations like D . G . REX . F . D, then you should follow the format consistently and Charles should...

BTW, there's a W-mint quarter just SE of the ashtray. J/K, made ya look. LOL ;)
I see Indonesia... Thailand... Singapore... Belgium... Germany... Canada... That's a pretty international mix!
I just looked up rare earth magnet, because while I've heard of them, I know next to nothing about all that. How are they supposed to work for...
Shipping update: The silver denarius from Round 8 ships to @Santinidollar today, January 14, 2023.
Great! Thanks for the update! :)
Here’s a belated bonus entry post for @Wheels, who posted an entry in Post #6. I always like it when someone wins a coin type they’ve never owned...
