I have been doing some work on the Coin Collecting Wiki, but I can't make it into the resource it should be on my own. I thought a little...
I was impressed by Lehigh96 and his wad of $100 bills until I saw this gold piece. I think whatever I finally decide to carry with be far less...
I believe you have answered my question Conder. Thank you. Also thank you Jello and Dave for your replies. It looks as if there may be quite a...
I like the idea of carrying a pocket piece. I'd never thought about it before. Trouble is I'd have trouble choosing so I'd probably end up with...

The price has gone up a little bit on this one. I guess if I want more gold coins I'd best buy them whilst I can still afford them. The...
Lincoln Cent Enthusiast Required I've just posted a "stub" article about the Lincoln Cent. I'm wondering if there is somebody who would be able...
I also much agree with Indianhead. I might phrase it like this; A numismatist is someone who takes an intellectual interest in coinage,...
