I just purchased this Gem Type 3 gold dollar. It is pedigreed to the D.L. Hansen Collection. Given the caliber of that famous collection, which...
Post your Hibernias, be they Voce Populis or otherwise. Here’s my proof 1805 Irish halfpenny. [IMG]
The ones dug were likely not Voce Populis, I’d imagine. I dug a 1782 Hibernia halfpenny down here, at the site of the old Hampton Plantation on...
These coppers were originally issued for Ireland (“Hibernia” is the old Latin name for Ireland.) Like William Wood’s earlier Hibernia coins, these...
Likewise. :)
Draped Bust silver is nice to have in any condition. And that one certainly ain’t bad at all.
Only at 3:00 because the reverse picture is upside-down. ;) Normally at 9:00. Interesting pedigree, BTW.
I just had to look up “ETFs” in order to have the slightest inkling of what that is. Badic “lumps of metal” I can wrap my head around....
Back on July 31st, I took about half of the contents of my nest-egg money market account (about $30K-ish) and sank it into gold and silver...

Ouch, that one worked hard for a living. Better-date coin for six bucks, though? Yep. Good grab, no doubt about it.
I’m with the horsey guy here. They look like nice Gem MS examples to me, though I’ll confess the relatively low relief on Peace dollars gives me...
Interesting relief on that. Looks “worn” even though it’s not, so much. @green18 is right- it does kind of have a “pocket piece” appearance to...
Bust halves are great, whether they’re Draped Bust or Capped Bust. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
These are cool, if rather crudely engraved. I guess that’s part of their charm. I had a couple of holed examples on my famous “Holey Gold Hat”,...
My favorite piece of silver. [ATTACH] Another favorite. Too many others to post, actually. [ATTACH]
Hey, Sal! Did you win that silver K-Rand in one of my giveaways? Looks familiar.
1822 Coronet cent, N-6, PCGS AU58 BN. Considering the present PCGS trend price shown on the cert page is $1,700 (which admittedly seems high), I...
This 1776 Spanish Colonial Mexico City half-real was the first 1700s coin I found while metal detecting. Needless to say, I was very excited. The...
