I was wondering if anybody could provide attribution information and/or a rough date range on this Spanish cob? It is not my coin, and not in...
We needed some old Spanish silver in the mix, so I just added this one to the Giveaway Gallery. :) The coin is in a "Genuine/Details" PCGS...
January 11, 2024 (just now). Another for the giveaways- we needed some Spanish silver in the mix. I wavered back and forth on buying this one...
I think maybe I'm caught up now on recording all of my pre-January 10th purchases! Time to buy one or two more before I end the spree! ;)

Duly noted.
I just said: If you want to block him, fine, block him. No need to announce it. Your name-calling post is counterproductive here. Perhaps I...
You may be correct in raising an eyebrow. But our author here is an enthusiastic newbie, and I’ve seen enough of his other posts to be inclined...
All right, let’s tone down the rhetoric and put down the knives and pitchforks, please. Our author here now knows he has touched upon a very sore...
