The mystery of @coin_nut's (Hamburg?) coin is gonna nag at me. I'll have to continue trying to solve it. Y'know, being that small and possibly...
Mea culpa - shamelessly bumping this back into the sunlight just this once, since it didn't get seem to get seen much, and I had just come back...
Thanks, WB2! Say, since you're here, why not repost that Antoninus Plus aureus? :)
There might be a (South) Vietnamese 10-dong in my bulk stuff. I'll take a look later.
You go, Mister Metzger. You already know I like your Elizabethan newp. (I lost the auction on my intended one.) One thing: "8th Century BC...
I'm a 1965 model myself, but not in very good grade. Somewhat worn, so probably only worth face value. I dunno. You'd have to ask...

That, I believe, is a vintage shuffleboard puck, not a coin! :smuggrin: [IMG]
I do find that V-nick quite groovy. My first-ever Shield nickel in my childhood collection (1866 w/Rays) looked like that. I bought it...
Nice relief on that SurfCow, @chrsmat71! :) As @dadams and @Aethelred will recall, I won the Numismatic Gladiator XI contest over on CU with...
All of us, even the moderators, occasionally forget stuff.
I agree. Not everybody would like those, and they have their issues, but I kinda like 'em, too. The black-and-white aspect of that Libnick is...
Reckon I'd have said AU50 had there been a bit more luster present.
Oh, and speaking of musketballs ... :) [IMG]
Now that you mention it, that seems even more plausible to me. "Exposed zinc core beneath peeling copper plating" seemed right, based on one of...
Oh, I don't need to Google Sedwick. ;) One of my detecting buddies consigned a local find to him. I saw this thing before Sedwick ever did,...
Separate names with a comma.
