Had to laff at the line in the song about buying a Reliant K-car (hoo boy, there’s a ‘90s reference!). My ex-wife had one in ‘94. Definitely not...
... I’d buy something else. But these are still a cool American rarity.
Well, I can see how it can be distracting, but it's also kind of interesting. Goes with the territory, y'know.
Well there's the Eliasberg specimen. I'd rather have the much lower-grade (PR04) Hallie Dagget "Ice Cream" specimen, though. Just because of the...
Thank you. Though I know this is not a slab-friendly subforum, I'm actually kind of relieved to have it in the new plastic coffin. It is so...
I'm getting there myself. Not sure I remember five-cent, full-sized candy bars, but I definitely remember when they cost a dime.
Crazy how that cross caused the ghosting on the obverse like that. I've seen that on some other hammered coins that had a cross on one side. It...

Wait, wait! Never mind. Actually... you know... looking closer at that, it appears that maybe there was a love token done there after all. Just...
Y'know what I'd do with that? I'd hire a hobo nickel artist (we have one or two in residence here, I think), and have 'em carve something cool...
Nope. Just worn and damaged, I'm afraid. Neither a weak strike nor a die trial. It's definitely PMD (post-mint damage), as mentioned. The...
Well, I'm a hotel night auditor, so what I'm working on tonight is the VIP list and rooming assignments and key control audits and emails and all...
Neatocool.
A lot of us have had the "I'm bored so I'll just post anything that comes into my head" ailment at times, Sal. I know I too have done it,...
I’ve seen this one before but forget the details grade. I agree with @Mainebill. It’s a “details” coin for sure- cleaned- but it has nice...
Fantastic photo! Cool caterpillar! Adorable! What a beautiful head of hair! Future modeling career there. Maybe in shampoo commercials. ;)...
