Nice crusty coin @Detecto --I like it! Here's my G3 Shilling. [IMG]
Those scratches are not "little". The one to the left of the bust on the obverse looks like a staple gouge. I don't care what the NGC holder...
Nice coin, but the phrase "finest known" annoys me a lot. It is not the "finest known" -- it is the highest numerically graded among the 6 coins...
Wow, I just looked it up on CoinFacts, and I'm a bit surprised by the grade. It is FAR inferior to the other examples pictured in the same...
Here's an ex-Yarm token. Kempson also, nice G3 bust. [IMG] [IMG]
Ugh. I don't even dare guess the grade, but I don't care for it.

I think this will just come naturally as people post new topics. I'm not sure it needs to be formalized with a year cut-off as @medoraman...
I think such a decision should/would be made by the users. I wouldn't change the "titles" of the forum sections to dictate this. Some people are...
I'll come over to the "ultra dark" side on occasion... :D
I just wanted to say Kudos to the CoinTalk crew who dug through thousands of threads to separate out the World and Ancient forums. To @Peter T...
I really like that Sussex 9 Larry! :cool:
Flights booked, hotel reserved. Wouldn't miss it. :D
A couple newps. Additions have been slow coming lately. These both have horses, but the Russian restrike one is pretty small (St. George in the...
All fine an good. I have personally really never cared that much about the slight difference in prices of PCGS vs. NGC coins in the realm of...
