Well, numismatically speaking, I can decipher any language besides the Arabic script, and other scripts similar to Arabic. I also cannot decipher...
Thanks to everybody for guessing away.... I saw the post early on that had the 1857 Flying Eagle Cent, and I was hoping no one would guess it so...
Yes! I was hoping I could use my 100th post here to announce that we have a winner! Spider is correct in guessing that I found a 1858 Flying...
Right off the bat, I want to say that I'm not actually going to be selling anything. This is just one of those "what if" questions.... If I...
