[Facepalm]. Well, it makes sense that it's smaller than the centavo, at least!
Why don't you feel this qualifies as a pattern? It seems to fit the same category as the 1856 flying eagle cents that were circulated among...
Sorry for the lousy pics - this is a tiny coin & I don't have my lens handy to shoot through. The denomination reads "Medio Centimo" - is that 2.5...
I was going to say the same thing - and I just finished reading the thread. Is it possible that there are multiple threads and you're getting your...
I'd like to finish the presentation with a coin related quotation. Anyone know a good one? I'm looking for something that encapsulates the idea...

$20k for a MS70 seems a bit out of touch with reality. There's a sharp premium over an MS69, but I'd only expect 15% or so.
If I'm not buying a common date or rough grade, I'd be happy to fill several holes in my Peace & Morgan collection for $25.
Pretty coins. Is the jewelry piece solder free or damaged?
Half a gram is, what, 0.017 oz of gold? Seems a bit more than I would expect for a tiny gold inlay like that. A lot of the Australian Kooks sell...
Also, here's more info (including the Secret Services stance on private ownership of these):...
There's at least one that's in private hands (with a clean provenance - I pulled up the Wiki article to double check my memory): "In the February...
Is there a reason that false coins were made for dance costumes (a religious prohibition of some kind, or some laws against punching holes in...
