I think, but I am not 100% sure, his is the only portrait to appear on any chilean coinage. This may be due to the strong republican traditions in...
Here is a 1/2 real 1834 with the Volcano motif. I think this type is perhaps one of the most appealing of all chilean coinage.
Thanks for the head up. One must always be careful when dealing with scarce coins, particularly when a date is unlisted. I hope you didn't pay...
A nice comparison, Marshall. Like I said, I like yours (for the price you paid) a whole lot more than the other with the scratch. If you ever...
Thank you, Marshall. That is very helpful in helping determine the reverses for the LCs of 1796. It will save me time next time that I try to...
This thread is a showcase parade of roman coins in exceptional condition. Beautiful ALL, without exception, but those aureii are really...
You are right there, Marshall. As a matter of fact, in the town in which I live there are probably many more porsches (about 5-8 at last count)...
Very nice 1793's posted so far. Beautiful coins all. Congratulations to the owners. I have four 1793 cents in my collection, including a...
sonlarson, thank you for posting these beautiful coins from Mexico. A country which I have visited many times and have learnt to love. I do not...
Very nice coins, particularly like the Caballito Peso.
Ah well, it seems that I thought about it just a little too long..... Seriously, I am glad you got it, and I think you got great deal. (I guess I...
Happy for you, Mat, and nice coin too. I know very little about coins minted at Emesa, but I think I can detect how the style is different from...
Specifically I am referring to products like Coin Care and Blue Ribbon. Whilst on my recent visit of the FUN show in Orlando I took the...
Once again, thanks to all for their comments and help. Besides large cents, I also focus on early dimes and quarters. But of all of these, it is...
I like the title of your thread, Derick. Here is some of my new world gold. An 8 Escudos coin dated 1750, only the second year of gold coinage...
Marshall, than you very much for your detailed answer. Very much appreciate your expertise in this area. I have taken some more pictures in...
Hi GD, is your coin an Delmonte 825bis. the 3rd and scarcest of the 3 Gorinchem Rose Noble varieties ? (with obverse legend EDWARD DI GRA REX...
Don't worry, Derick. It was nice to see your coins. I will set up a separate thread in the world coins section. Here is my oldest U.S silver:
That is a nice Orbiana, Mat! Her denarii are eagerly sought after, and yours is a well struck example, with an expressive portrait (much better...
Thanks Mat, Thanks rev1774! Yes, the 3-errors reverse certainly is interesting. One of those 'must-have' coins I guess. I am told these are quite...
