Ohh... yes. That's certainly true. Thanks for the advice. I think I'll probably flip the 1/3 guinea. But first, I've gotta go pay for it...
Yep. Green anole lizard. Handsome little boogers. We have them all over the side of our house. And occasionally inside the house, to our cats'...
Always thought these were pretty. Have never owned any, though I've seen them a time or two.
I'll bet the little girl who drew that is a teenager in high school now. Being the parent of a high school teenage daughter, I predict Maddy Rae...
My 1810 1/3 guinea wasn't a BIN. It was an auction win.
They could be very, very habit-forming for me as well, were I not usually constrained by budget. That one has arrived. It is a keeper. :) The...
PS- that 1787 6d rocks, too. I believe I posted a holey circ example several pages back. PS @Collect89- second glimpse - wow, no, - that coin...
And he can't remember if he posted it before. LOL If I owned that coin, it would be my avatar, in my sigline, I'd have it on T-shirts, and...
Oh, good heavens, man! If it isn't @panzerman, here you have to go, too! Y'all slay me with this stuff! ;) W...O...W.

Actually, I have been very gradually working on the sidelines to repopulate the trademark hat, though with mostly love tokens and trench...
When the dust settles from this spree, I might have 27-30 coins. I'm expanding to a Box of 25 now, but I'll still be shaking a few pieces loose...
Come to think of it, I might've done pretty well on the Zurich city view 1/2 thaler, too. Krause says $525 in XF and $950 in MS60. I'm into this...
I'm headed to the post office to pick this one up this afternoon. Switzerland (Zurich): silver "city view" 1/2-thaler (1 gulden/36 schillings),...
Here's another ancient newp that has been posted on the Ancients forum but does not yet have its own thread, so I will copy and paste the listing...
This tiny ancient Greek piece got its own "newp" thread in the Ancients forum. Description ANCIENT GREECE EL Hekte 478-387 B.C. Grade: VF/VF+...
Member "spacemonkey" on Collectors Universe (a photo editing and graphics genius like our @Deacon Ray is here) has a young daughter named Maddy...
I just bought this from a member here, so there is once again one Far Eastern coin in my collection. :) Oh and a "non-round" piece as well....
All of you: get it tested. The Arras token (these are fantasies and not actual coins, though they are often erroneously called coins) and the...
