I thought I would share with you the latest additions to my large cent collection. The first is an 1801 S-219 variety, R-2, commoner of the two...
Very nice, Derick! Unusual to see Chilean colonial and early republic coins here in C.T. That is a nice volcano peso. Scarcer than the commonly...
Galba does not only look stern (or at least severe) in his coinage, he was in fact was a very stern commander and administrator. That is in one...
I am going to say VF35 and a nice coin.
If I may, I would advice against buying damaged coins. Long term you will not be happy with it. 2K is still a lot of money and the 1795 FH dollar...
This link may help. It gives detailed mintages and valuations (in Euros) for the 2,3 and 5 mark coins of the German Reich....
I don't have my Breen right now with me (I am 9000 miles away from home), but if I remember correctly there are two features which distinguish the...

I don' know if this is the best methsd, but I just leave them on a tray by a window sill (and hope my wife does not wipe them with a wet cloth...
Here the 1795:
Here are some of mine. 1795, 1800, 1803. All have some imperfections and as such are potential candidates for upgrades, but I like them. These...
No need to tell his story - everybody, or most everybody knows who he was. A colorful king, but also a dangerous man to be married to as two of...
Nice Coin, Mat. I like the earthen tone. Getting a coin as a gift from a loved one (Parent, wife or children) is always a nice thing. (My...
Good deal, BQ! hope you find some more. Patience pays. Reminds me of a 21'd dime in EF I picked up for about $ 15 from a bulk lot many years ago.
