Mike's got a sharp eye.... How about a macro picture to complement the macro?
Swish: One of the local female coin dealers had them specially produced. She told me about them ahead of time, so I had her order one for me. I...
king of the coin nerds Folks, I believe we have a winner: [IMG]
I was going to come visit, but then I realized that my worldview was tainted because I live about 10 miles from the border. This show is,...
That would have to be one heck of a coin to justify slabbing. I checked the ANACS website, and they didn't mention holed coins. You might want...
Hey, Dan....you lurker you. I was going to welcome you to the forums when I saw you had 6 posts. Then I saw that you joined years before I did...
