Where'd Ireland come from? o_O (Don't get me wrong - I love Ireland, and that's a pretty penny - but we weren't playing Ireland or chickens or...
Standing Lady. [IMG] [IMG] Next up, coins with hearts on them. (Check out Marianne's necklace on this one.) [IMG]
Well, they're obsolete now, apparently. A Chuck E. Cheese token used to be synonymous with "worthless", but if I dug one while detecting, it...
No, not quite MS. I agree with those who said AU58. Look at the strands of hair right over Liberty's ear. Definite rub there. That being said,...
@Collect89 - that Sikyon stater is awesome. I remember @AncientJoe posting his incredible example with its "glowing" chimera over on Collectors...
That's quite interesting. I dunno. Grease-filled die seems plausible enough to me? "Big fan of weird", huh? Well, there's nothing weird about...
Facebook? What's that? LOL I think I might have logged on to my FB account once in the last two years or so.
Now let's go to 1906. [IMG] [IMG]

Yes. This is also good advice. Then when you've got a short list of stuff that you like, you can ask folks more specific questions about those...
Actually, that wasn't original. I borrowed the pic from somebody else's meme. The coin definitely looks like it suffered a woodpecker attack....
I dunno. They all look fantastic. Only #2 - the 1947-S quarter - looks outclassed here, in terms of eye appeal and not necessarily technical...
Great stuff. Nice "crusty" Phil-American 20c. Sure, a tad dark, but cool coin. [IMG] Always liked these Portuguese ships. [IMG] Ditto these...
Those might've just salvaged this thread. Million dollars? Nope. Gorgeous? You betcha. That first one is fantastic. The second one awesome.
Photobucket has become PhotoSuckIt. Use the Gallery here. And/or Collectivecoin.com. Or somewhere - anywhere - else. I might have paid...
