Currency works. We've got a paper money forum here, after all. I know doodley-squat about the stuff (other than the notes I spend) but it seems...
I'll only need one for my collection, so there will be an extra slabbed example available when they come back from Newport Beach several weeks...
1959 Esperanto 10-steloj. ("Steloj" = star, or stars, in... Esperanto.) I'm sending that coin and one other almost identical UNC off to PCGS...
A star (and a chicken, too!) :chicken: [IMG]
Here is an extra entry post for @Tlberg. That means that if the random number generator picks the number 48 (this is Post #48), then he will win...
*** SOLD *** Obverse has nice CircCam contrast. Which is fitting, since this coin came from John Calder, aka @CircCam. [IMG]
Sure would've been nice if it were real. I recently sold the coin pictured above for $1,265. But it was a Choice Mint State example.
Oh- and how neat that it's the inverted date. That detail had escaped my notice, but now that it has been pointed out, I can see that as clear as...
There is an opinion I would respect when it comes to half dimes. You might say they are @Paddy54's affliction. ;)
I can tell you straight off that that coin is not worth the expense of sending off to be graded. Here's the PCGS Photograde page for Buffalo...
This, though not even necessarily cleaned with copper cents. I've dug nickels that were that color out of the ground, and stained that coppery...

It's an unusual item, for sure. Might have been used as an ornament on something.
Merged the two duplicate threads about the same coin.
I just saw the second picture (the smaller thumbnail image in the original post) which I somehow missed the first time around. That pretty much...
It's true the 1911-S is a semi-key date and good to have, but I'm afraid I must agree with @BadThad- the damage on that (and the other as well) is...
Stars. (PCGS PR63) [IMG]
No, it isn't. That's the rose on an ancient coin of Rhodes, or an imitation of a coin from Rhodes. @Ptachia- I merged your two duplicate threads...
Awesome, @Shrews1994 - congrats. I like the look of the garnet, myself. When I was a kid, we used to find them in the stream by my grandfather's...
Speaking of Seated quarters, your latest castoff landed in my mailbox this morning and will be included in my next Eclectic Box update. [ATTACH]
