Nap, these coins made my jaw drop. This is the type of collection I one day hope to have for myself. Until then, I'll just admire yours. I would...
Just the reactions I hoped for and described in the intro for this thread: warm, insightful, interesting, friendly and relatable. I've read all of...
No, but I have to admit: last time I searched on wikipedia for some medical facts is a while ago :angelic: However, it's not one writer. Check:...

@AussieCollector: it depends on what you want to clean. If it’s the dirt, then it’s relatively easy. If you mean the dark patina, then that’s a...
