I don't recall seeing any pictures of that scene, either - not with detail of the coins- not before the Victorian era. I seem to have been...
Aww, man, you put dangerous ideas into my head, too.
Hi. It certainly looks like an AU coin to me. Pretty sharp. Welcome.
CAC on PO01 does rather defy logic, but since the whole thing does, well, then why not? PCGS and CAC both say, "Thank you very much for your...
Doug's pockets are made from a Kevlar-Kryptonite mesh.
FWIW, @Bert Gedin, I like your warmth and respect your obviously keen intelligence. I just feel you go out on some pretty bizarre tangents...
While I don't foresee much better than 25 or 30 (and 35 as a best-case scenario, I do agree that it's a solid piece, and appealing whatever the...
I dunno. I didn't look really closely. To be honest with you, they change stuff so often, I feel like I'm starting over every time I go there,...
It's true that experienced collectors must continue to learn. However, once one has learned something and developed some experience in a...
Yep. You've got a lamination there. @paddyman98 - wow- that shot with the piece of paper bookmarking the separated flap is nuts!
Wow, the fact that somebody topped the High Desert collection is what amazes me.
What looks different to you? I just signed in over there to look and it all looks the same to me, but a lot of times they'll change stuff without...
That particular British 20-pence has long been one of my favorite modern coin designs. The 1982-2001 bimetallic (KM111 type) Italian 500-lire...
I like the look of the 1836 here. The row of them all together looks appealing, too. Fun. I do like early US type coins, though I don't...
I say VF30.
You'd think so, but I don't think it's that easy. See, lowball collectors want straight-graded PO01 coins, and I don't think many tumbled coins...
Wow! Early Washington! Great find! I've never dug one from the 1930s while detecting. You had me going on the "E. LEE" thing. I was all...
Those old threepence coins are fun. I always liked their dodecagonal shape (that's the fancy word for 12-sided), and their chunky thickness. I...

Wow. I haven't even paid attention. I remain almost totally oblivious to modern coins in circulation, though I'll occasionally look down to see...
