I was wondering if it was Ottoman or Indian. But I'm too far out of my depth. You might be right- it could indeed be a coin, of a type I've just...
Agreed. Good enough to keep, but not really worth more than a few cents over face value.
I've never seen that bird design before. It's delivering some kind of message. Makes me wonder if this isn't some kind of token or medal? I'm...
Of course this was a full penny. A silver halfpenny was a pretty small thing back then (and I don't think any were even made until later, with...
This one certainly appears to have a wider bust than the Round 1 coin? Round 1 [IMG] Round 2 [IMG]
Now we come to... ROUND 2. The prize is a second Roman bronze antoninianus of the emperor Aurelian. This one was struck between 270 and 275 AD....
That's cool. I would have been a little surprised PCGS graded it, until I noticed the X-number, and remembered it's in the Krause Unusual World...
Can't say I've seen many toner MTTs. I like the prooflike ones with contrast. They're really cool coins. One of the more appealing...
Thanks- I'm flattered. :) That's a great error coin. I opted to have a similar (D/S & O/C) type error in my collection, albeit a lot older and...
75-cent profit! Cool! And that right there was probably the biggest nail in the coffin of the Susan B. Anthony dollar. You'd think the Mint...
Always liked the Barbados (-oes) type, from the standpoint of historical curiosity, though they're a tad cringeworthy on the political correctness...
And a gorgeous ragdoll, too!
Gift. Like the gorgon above, this was also a gift from @kazuma78, a while back. (Don't pelt him with rotten vegetables for entombing it in a...
Whooo... a 67! Wow! Same, same. We have about that many inside (with a similar number outside). Just had to move one from my chair in order to...
Hmm. Wondered about that. I'm bidding in a Polish auction at present. Not on a Polish coin, but rather an ancient.
'Twas merely a short coma nap.
PS- rough day, eh, Sal? Well, guess what just happened? ;)
Gifts. I've given away all of the coins below in the last three weeks, and am giving more away here. Next: continue the "gifts" theme. [IMG]...
Good point. Having the full name on the flan is right up there with having a nice portrait.
I agree. There's no contest between the two, in my opinion. That one has nicer surfaces and a lower pricetag and, to me, better eye appeal than...
Separate names with a comma.
