I wonder if any of these dealers would be willing to hire someone (like a world coin enthusiast such as yourself) to go through their world coin...
I'll try to be there! Lookin' for S. Korean coins...
It's wasn't available for some time? I didn't know that...
The Koreans revamped their entire currency system with a redesign in 1982-1983. So, yes, the 1983 and later100-Won will look different from the...
If it looks like a modern coin, and has a round hole, it's probably Japanese (50-Yen, Five-Yen) or some other country, like Denmark.

Did you submit at the ANA show in Chicago?
Wowzers! Incredible coins! I like how they kept the shells in the core of those graded holders. Three-hole multiholders.... never seen that before.
Your approach to grading world coins is ABOUT the only way one can do it without the aid of numismatic grading standards from the country of...
If only we knew the grading standards for this coin(!)
Again, thanks for hijacking the thread, because now I'm investigating the Chinese Characters for 견양(見樣) and 견본(見本) to see why Koreans use 양 yang...
I would be the last person to complain about "hijacking a thread," which I think is one of the dumbest accusations about a harmless activity that...
