As to assembling pieces in lots of the same type, I think that makes good sense. You might want to post some of the lots here so we can preview...
Considering the last Trade dollars were struck in 1885 (and only five proofs that year, which are worth a boatload of money today), your "1887-S"...
Unfortunately, those are not valuable coins at all. They're quite common and low-value, and not remotely worth the considerable expense of having...
It's full of error coins! :hilarious:
I've noticed that. A challenge, then. I'm cool with the occasional challenge.
Aha, so that's Lot 2 accounted for. It'll be interesting to see who got which of the other two lots. PS- I used to live in Tanzania, though that...

Of course I've got charging knights and bristling medieval weaponry and heraldry covered with another coin I'm sure everyone's already seen. :)...
Awesome! I like the charging duke. My Lorraine addition from earlier this year is a bit more "modern". I like it, and it was affordable,...
Except I'm not your Secret Santa. ;) But yes, I hope that piece I sent you gets shaken loose soon from wherever it's been stuck in the USPS cogs...
I haven't had any of these since probably 15+ years ago, when bullion was way cheaper.
You're likely seeing reflections from the protected areas of luster inside that part of the incuse design.
Love the design, patina, and CircCam reverse on that one! The "poster" treatment is just icing on the cake.
One day I'll add a proper Judaean piece to my collection. Will it happen in 2019? Maybe!
Of course @panzerman throws us all in the shade, as usual. :greedy::watching:
Likewise. Woohoo! Thanks! :woot:
