Though the coins are mine, I can't take credit for these pictures. Most of the Photoshop templates were done from the PCGS TrueView images or...
LOL. But might not be a native English speaker. I'm going to vote "help" in that wacky poll, because I need help understanding it!...
As mentioned, a 1968 dime and 1990 cent without mintmarks are likely going to be worth only face value unless they are proof coins. Business...
What Mat said. At first I thought "Older Canadian Bill" was someone's username. LOL
Sound enough advice, except an AirTite holder would likely cost more than that coin is worth.
Thanks. I'm starting to enjoy having my Box of 20 collection on the Gallery. But is it nice enough to be in the Showcase? Hmmmm... ;) If The...
That's a nice Sabina denarius.
@Andres2- that's just because "S" stands for Sestertius. And that one was also minted in San Francisco. ;)
Neat thread. Please ignore me- I posted this accidentally, while playing around to see how the oh-so appropriately-named @geekpryde had created...

I like the toning on the coin in the OP. The portrait looks like a textbook definition of "bored". Or indeed "sad", as mentioned. He looks like...
The "Taco Bell Napkin" thing really refers to any of the brown-colored paper napkins used in fast food chains. Some coins (usually silver) left...
The Nazi coin posted above is silver. So yes, no surprise that it would tarnish/tone like that. The quarter in the OP is of course a...
Not surprisingly, I've seen a lot of "X" marks. The "S" is intriguing, though.
Good point. It certainly makes one wonder. I still can't help but compare the art on something like the Gundestrup cauldron and thinking it as...
Yep. I think that's a pretty accurate statement.
PPS- you did exactly what I did. Since I collect Ancient, World, and US, any of my posts that span all three categories go right here, in the...
PS- The Valentinian looks almost like one of those little "pocket screwdriver" tools you can put on a keychain. Very inventive, those Romans....
