Me?!? A “mean curmudgeon”? I’m sure I have no idea what you’re talking about. Just ask my daught- Eh, never mind.
People plate 1943 cents with copper all the time to resemble the rare 1943 copper (bronze) cents. That's easily distinguished with a magnet....
The bank is not going to have any gold coins. The Sacagawea and Presidential dollars are not gold. They are described as "golden" due to their...
I have never watched an episode of The Simpsons ever. It's not that I have anything against the show- heaven knows, I've absorbed enough trivia...
I do know the 1921 Peace dollars often come with brownish toning, for whatever reason, and maybe they're not always as lustrous as the lower...

Anything coin-related you want to post. See the introduction for the contest rules. Welcome. In short, you may post as many conversational...
I had one of those Miletos/Miletus lions, once upon a time. Got it for a really nice price, too. Very cool little Archaic era coins. Very...
When it comes to Allectus (I've never had one), I only have eyes for the ones with the galley reverse, for some reason.
You're right, they're very lovely coins. Your post reminded me that I haven't had one in a while. So... I just... umm... took care of that. ;)...
Ditto on both counts.
