Nice bookmark! A "can't lose" purchase for only a buck!
But since the OP example is cited as "DH-48" in the link @alurid provided, it does seem to be in Dalton & Hamer; ergo, could one arguably refer to...
Coins of Cromwell and the Commonwealth have always interested me, but I've not had any. Oh, and @4to2centBC - I've been a rabid Jethro Tull fan...

Well, I used to be a big fan of this orange look, until my eyes were recently opened by the discussions here. :(:oops:
I've had a "thing" for owls since childhood (and inherited my grandmother's collection of owl figurines, plates, and knick-knacks, to which I've...
I like your present avatar. Jacques Cousteau was my hero when I was growing up in the 1970s!
Yes, this is an excellent point. I probably was a (slight) headache to the dealer who offered Coin A (and in fact they had offered me very nice...
Switzerland (Zurich): silver "city view" 1/2-thaler (1 gulden/36 schillings), 1739. [IMG] (Pix above from Atlas numismatics. Pix and slabshot...
Oops. I posted a cool coin, but I was out of sequence. So really we should be on Hawaii or 1883, in keeping with @Muzyck 's last post (if I'm on...
(Edit- aack! It was my turn to misplay one here, myself.) :oops:
Yeah, unfortunately that Carlos y Juana 2-reales piece wouldn't work, due to it being undated, but it's a killer coin- I've long wanted one of those.
Yes, I think you're right. It does look like a Persian 1-kran piece, from the Qajar dynasty (ca. 1800s), but I don't know enough about these to...
Wow! A one-year type. I looked it up. Tough coin!
I already played my 1901 GB half-sov (the Terner one), so I'll go back to 1901 or Ceylon. [IMG]
Awesome Alexanders. I had this one briefly, a bit more than a year ago. It ended up with @Aethelred, but might come back my way again someday,...
That is one of my favorite modern coin designs. Almost bought a proof of one of those. Ceylon, 1901. [IMG]
Yeah, that was a premature edit when Coin A was first reserved for me. Coin B should be here very soon to examine in hand, but I'm still torn...
Dangit, zumbly! Just when it seems the poll was vindicating my selection (yes, I just bought Coin B), you have to go and make me second-guess...
One of the times I've been involved with a major discovery coin, I was the cherrypick-ee rather than the cherrypicker. Sometimes you're the...
