A necklace charm is remotely possible, or just some holes that somebody put in there so they could carry their coins on a string.
Not bad at all for a buck, on that 1851. The 1837 was about right, for five bucks, I think. I do not think it was a button, as the holes would...
I’m envious. Never had him, of course. Wonderful story! Priceless artifact. Those Arcadius GLORIA ROMANORVM pieces seem to have a knack for...
You see what?
At some point after everyone has read the third sentence in the intro. ;)
Yes, that’s one problem with the “chain” theory, which I think I touched on earlier. A test, huh? I’m old enough to accept that challenge. The...
That was a buck well spent.
What made you decide to do the post-Soviet set? I guess the breakup onto all sorts of exotic “-stans” is an interesting enough reason. I’m...
So I gather the cat coin (token) is “Almost BU”, or perhaps “near Gem” in American parlance. A generic UNC, then. Like the Latvian and Balboa....

That’s eleven more than I have, and ten more than I’ve owned, total. Totally valid impression. I have no idea, personally, and couldn’t...
I literally did make a 3cN love token one time, for a friend, @oreville. I came across a nickel 3c piece that had had its obverse smoothed off,...
Outlandish and amusing scenarios aside, that’s my take on the matter as well. Welding/soldering/braising. Likely jewelry. Perhaps to a link of...
The 9-y.o. perspective is respected here, and was even partially suggested in Rule 2. :p
It is my thing. Twenty years on the PCGS forums left their mark on me, so I absorbed much of that culture. For better and for worse. There’s...
DEFDAM! I spared him the trouble! :hilarious:
Darn you, @Shea19, @Al Kowsky, @ancient coin hunter, et al… y’all have me browsing large Æ30+ provincials, now! At least I’ll know where to...
If it was a female mini-horse, I'd have said her name was Neighdine.
