Welcome, @VRSilver! As you know from our prior conversation, I am a fan of Hungarian denars. Never had one as early as yours there, though....
@expat- I am tired myself. It is only 6:21 PM in Georgia, but I have been up since about 3:30 AM. The typos will begin any moment now, if I...
Yep, I noticed that, too. He probably meant to type "Balboa", and "centavo" slipped out instead. I catch myself having little brain hiccups like...
Nice Panamanian! Even better, it's a Balboa, not a centavo! I got that 1962 nickel you like as part of an inexpensive 2-piece lot of PCGS...

This post (#21) is an extra bonus entry post for Azjedi on Collectors Universe, because he is a 9-year-old YN working on a Dansco 7070 album,...
This post (#20) is the entry post for Azjedi on Collectors Universe.
Even though I started this thread, I get it mixed up with the other one too sometimes!
@expat's Japanese 1964 coin (nice though it was) was misplayed. It should have been something from Australia or 1901, coming after @robp's 1901-P...

Slightly misaligned die. Cool, but not worth any extra premium.
Aha! I know where I've seen that flaming stierkopf before! [MEDIA] And speaking of stierköpfen, but whimsical ones, not evil... German States...
Let's steer clear of contentious religious topics here, please, folks. I have not had time to read the discussion and see what has to be edited...
@SmokinJoe - you entered the giveaway that just closed! Go to the new one!
Y'all read Rule 2 above, if you want to be eligible. (There are only two rules.) ;) Since those two entry posts are disqualified, you may try...
This was exactly my thought. But by all means, I'd do the necessary testing to rule out the possibility of a fourrée or forgery.
I think it might just be disturbances to the toning/patina in those areas? Perhaps the entire coin was a more pale color when it was new, and the...
Thanks. It was only relatively minor (outpatient) vein surgery in my right leg. The left leg got it last month. This is the second round on...
