I found some Poarch Creek Indian silver dollars the other day (for slightly above melt): [ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH][ATTACH]
I do wonder what the long term effects of slabbing will be on our hobby. Especially as slabs are currently wrapped around a significant portion of...
Are you sure about that? I thought Prussia had been involved off and on in previous coalitions. 1813 was the Battle of Leipzig (which was widely...
Because the grades are applicable to any coin? It's just like using 14k to indicate 50% purity of copper.

Hmm. Going through and cataloging my coins, I found a wider mix of dates that expected. Several of the coins have counterpunches that are rotated...
The EUA > ECU conversion would make sense... but I wonder who minted these? Would they have been presentation pieces from the conference?
It looks German or Austrian to me - "fur herrvoragende leistungen" translates into "For Outstanding Achievements". I'm not sure about ZBA '22......
No idea about the exchange rates. But, I'd imagine that the coin was equivalent to a typical river crossing fare. So, adjusting for our modern...
