Unfortunately I can't find the "E" on the 1644 half crown you mentioned. The "ox" below the date stands for Oxford I presume?
I've never slabbed many of my things unless they were being sold. For example I've an 1889-s Liberty $10 in what I & a Heritage numismatist...
That is completely true. This happened to me when my flight was delayed and I arrived at a major show at noon the day BEFORE it was slated to...
That's an extremely nice Trade dollar. 1873-S is also a very good year for these. I'd be happy with a more common 1873-P. It seems to be an...
I think this may not be accurate. While it's possible for any coin to be sold at a minor auction and sell cheaply unnoticed, I think a VF...
Finally, some of the earlier sunface types. I'll post a couple of mine, not quite as early but very rare issues that are not found frequently....
I wonder how much of the path of the Civil War you could illustrate with these pieces? I don't see any siege pieces so I'm guessing not into 1645...
I Just booked Hotel and travel so I guess I'm going. Note that often Dealers pack up early so getting there Friday or Thursday would be...
That's interesting. I talked with the head of the ANS earlier this year and mentioned my concern about bringing some very rare Roman bronze coins...
Here's the link: It used to be a top Google hit last week but not anymore....
Thanks for your detailed reply Stork. It's a recent CoinWeek article. I'll link to it when I get home later today. I'll also see if CoinWeek...
Some collectors of World that I correspond with are advising me to go to FUN, in Florida rather than the NYICS. -- for World Coinage. They say...
A friend txt'd me and wants me to go. Room rates for the show dates are still the same price and my woman friend dropped out so I can get a...
My estimate on the whole collection is maybe $1,300. The Macedonian tet is apparently the biggest & best coin and that's not a particularly good...
Nope, I just agreed with Kanga: but I voted for the twin peppermints up the nose. But at least it's original rather than having been dipped by...
For a moment there I was confused. Were you posting about a Shield Nickel with Rays (1866 - 67) or a Buffalo Nickel with Rays?
From their repeated showing of it, it appears that the Macedonian tetradrachm is the largest, best preserved, and maybe the most valuable coin....
I hate to break this to you but it's not 1861; it's 1871.
Stack's: Anaheim, CA, 10 Aug 2016, lot# 20574 That's the advantage of having a coins website, which I programmed myself in HTML btw. I can look...
She's been telling that story for a long time. I'm going to guess that she got that thing in the 1950's or 1960's. Running a retail store in...
