Yesterday I uploaded my new 1 dollar Guyana proof coin. People seemed to like that, so I am sharing the others from the series. The ones I have...
I got this today and wanted to share it. It's from Guyana, a 1976 1 dollar coin. You can't tell from the scan but it has a mirror finish. Shiny...
I had to share this with someone. There's so much wrong with this listing. He refers to them as "silver Mexican Pacos." Of course he means pesos,...
I'm going to be kicking myself over this one for awhile. I was doing my usual eBay search this morning, world coins under $5 ending soonest, and...
I know this is in bad shape, and serious currency collectors probably wouldn't want it in their collection, but I think it's neat. 1897 10...
I have the result of an impulse eBay purchase here. The seller said it is a 2 liard from Austrian Belgium, year 1777. I don't have a Krause for...
We've had something of a Central American theme here on the World Coin board lately, so here's another often-overlooked country. British Honduras,...
Lately I've had a streak of buying coins on eBay and then finding there's a problem with them when they arrive, and it's usually my fault. I tend...
I bought an 1826 British farthing on eBay, and it arrived today. I was pleased to discover it was not in fact a farthing, but a penny instead. The...

Can anyone tell me what country this is from?
I wanted to share this coin that I just got today. It's a 20 reis coin from 1865 from the Azores. It's about the size of a half dollar and is...
It seems like every coin I've been watching on eBay lately has gotten to some ridiculous bid. Here's a good example: 1930 Greek 20 drachmai:...
I was watching this coin for a few days, and finally with less than an hour left I bid on it. It was sitting at $3.80, and I bid $15.50, and I was...
Here's an interesting article from Time magazine. Apparently North Korea has the same kind of printing presses as the U.S. mint and routinely...
I'm hoping to get more info to identify these coins. I believe two are from Japan and the other from Taiwan, but that's all I have so far.
I just bought some neat, older Asian coins, but I don't know much about them so I'm hoping I can get some ID help. The first three all have a...
I feel like New Zealand coins are undervalued in Krause. Many are listed at 10 cents or so, but I am frequently outbid on eBay in the $3-$4 range....
A few days ago I posted some of my favorite big copper coins. Well, I like big coins in general, not just copper, so here are a few huge base...
I love big coins, especially big old copper or bronze coins. I just got this 1832 Brazil 80 reis in the mail today, and I think it's awesome. It's...
