For a moment, you see, I saw the bird (eagle) on the obverse*, and then another (very dead) bird (archaeopteryx) on the reverse, and thought it...
Neat. The archaeopteryx skeleton threw me for a sec. I assume the scratches over SOLNHOFEN must be on the plastic.
The Gallienus looks sharp. Valerian looks pretty good, too, though the pix are darkish. Maybe the coin itself is a bit dark? Not saying that’s...
Hm. I sense the beginnings of a small trend, possibly. [ATTACH]
Nice Rhodesian collection!
“Buy us!”, they trumpeted. So I did. Bonus: two cheetahs also came along for the ride. “What is this, Noah’s Ark?” I asked them. “OK, get in.”...
Wow, has it really been that long? Tempus fugit.
I don’t think I’d forget a ‘12-S! Then again, considering all the other stuff I’ve forgotten, you never know. I once found a VG 1875-S 20-cent...
I don’t remember it being that long. Less than ten. Less than seven, even. The PCGS Museum of Coin Holders site is not showing right now, for...
I went to look at the PCGS Museum of Coin Holders page, but it's gone, seemingly replaced by a list of the types of current holders. (?!?)
Oh- I just thought of another coin with trees on it. Somebody on Collectors Universe had, or has, a full-red, PCGS MS67 RD example of this type....
Wow! That one is SHARP! I have one that @kazuma78 gave me. I’ve been told mine is a pretty nice example, too, but yours leaves it behind. Roma...
My Gordie3 ant is overshadowed by the one @Cucumbor posted right above it! But I won mine for a nice price.
If you meant the 1903, that just sold and is on its way to France. ‘Twas a nice one for the grade. I’ll have to look for more like that. I do...
Bingo! PS- I like that 10-piastres with the ship.
Belated reply- @Mountain Man- that would count as a lot of color down here. I love your mountains! I love mountains in general, though most of...
I don’t know why I failed to think about the ubiquitous Canadian cent. My mind went to the bullion Maple Leaf coins, but I forgot about the...
Here he is on a Gordie3 ant I won in a recent @John Anthony auction. Doesn't look like he's laboring very hard, here. Just kinda chillin', with...
@Nyatii- you know how to knock a fella out with those pix of your place. Absolutely stunning. Real "God's Country" stuff there. That pic just...
Ooh! A cityview spielmarke! I had one similar, once, I believe, but not so nice. Found mine in a bulk bag, of course.
