That is an interesting piece. Seems much better made than a lot of the contemporary counterfeit Seated Liberty coins that were made for nefarious...
Holy schmoleys, that's an oldie! I have no memory whatsoever of the coin or the sale, and only the very dimmest recollection of those inserts.
Nice job.
Nice old toning! The George VI piece looks Choice AU to me. The rim looks a bit wavy. Check it for bends. There is also a faint fingerprint on...
Nice original looking grey piece, with the sort of look I like to see on a circulated silver coin. Looks like the tiniest of rim bumps at 12:00...
I've never had any Bactrian coins at all, though one or two have caught my eye.
Oy! Think again! Are you sure that isn't the moon?
I ain't got grandbabies quite yet, but I agree. At least two bucks for the novelty value. Shoot, I'd swap a pair of silver dimes for it. Of all...
Hey, how could you NOT buy that for two and a half bucks? Fun find!
OK! The following coins from the OP are spoken for now: 8 10 11 12 19 21 22 23 24 25 @Mad Stax - it is now your turn to pick five that are NOT...

Cool one, @Roman Collector. How does that type compare against a Caligula VESTA Æ in similar grade? (Edit: pricewise, i meant to say.). I...
Actually, I agree with this.
65 seems right to me. I think the PCGS pops in that grade are a five-figure number!
I noticed VCoins was down, too. Thought it was my cheap tablet at first, but tried another device with the same result (or lack thereof). You...
I've had the forum or my hardware freeze up and cause double- and triple-posts. No double threads ... yet. Yes, that was probably a fairly well...
I'd personally be a tiny bit more conservative on the large cent; say VF20-25 ... maybe 30 on a really good day - but not XF. However, I really...
A time machine? ;) Nope. What's done is done, I reckon.
How do you know it was stuck in something "for 30 years" if you just got it? Looks like typical gunk to me, and a "spender" coin worth face...
Yes, and the Austrian ones are pretty, too! (I am at this particular moment unfamiliar with the Canadian ones.)
