Gimme your address in a PM and your oldest dated coin will no longer be 1881. ;)
We had a baby rattlesnake in the hotel lobby where I work about two years ago. (Our hotel is right by the marshes, in a very wildlife prone...
That one that grabbed Dad's camera looked as tall as Godzilla to me at the time. Granted, I was a scrawny six-year-old, but the bird dwarfed Dad...
Awesome shot!!! I lived in Tanzania, East Africa as a 6-7 year old kid, so I'm familiar with scenes like that. I did not own a camera then, but...
@sonlarson - awesome pix! Love that lake, and your "elk wrangling" shot! Such a tiny, cute little critter! :p @Lester Maddox - I'd love to see...
(Oops- accidental post. I was rereading this thread in one tab and replying to another thread in a different tab, so guess what happened)
You're a class act, Cointessa. I've said it before. The forums are better for your being here, beyond the shadow of a doubt. As far as the...
I agree.
I was tempted to post my 1806 gilt halfpenny for Great Britain, but I'm pretty sure it's been posted - maybe more than once. So I'll play from...

Indeed, indeed. Or kept a close eye on the ground. Hey, you never know what might even be lying right on the surface. Not that I'm suggesting...
@Curtisimo does it again, proving worthy of his custom title.
Thank you. Sure, you'll have a cool coin or two, if you make that a priority. Maybe more than one or two!
Shoot me a message with a link to the auction and I will check it out. Not listing it with a low start like 99c isn't an error; it just means...
Detected, you mean, or collected?
PS - to address your primary question, I would sell it via true auction on eBay, with excellent or at least very clear photos. I would start it...
@jester3681 is a CWT specialist (and likely not the only one in these parts) and may be able to advise you. Good luck, and congrats on the find!...
Interesting piece, if it isn't a modern fantasy. I have no idea.
The portrait on that looks like a later Type 2 (1828-37) coin. An 1822 would be Type 1 (1809-28); slightly larger with a subtly different...
