That's a lot of detail for $20. Well-done!
It's a lot of corroded junk. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but your hundred dollars would have been better spent on a couple of well-preserved coins -...
That's an excellent coin! I'm curious: how common, or uncommon are architectural devices on RRs?

Give me a fat wallet and I'll show you a great eye. Not to take anything away from Collect89's choice of coin, but if you have the means to buy an...

Great token! Yes, it's in French. VINS D'ESPAGNE would be the name of his business, simply: Spanish Wines. GUEBWILLER, ALSACE is the location of...
