I'm sure it's a lot cheaper to buy Thai coins online. Thai coins fortunately aren't too expensive.
Easy, you just get a bunch of tourists travelling around and they accidently spend these coins. I find some Kiwi coins in circulation here from...
Looks like a Northern Sung Chinese coin. http://www.history.ucsb.edu/faculty/roberts/coins/Chinese%20coins/index.html
It must be crime rate. You should try to go to a mad gold jewellery / bullion shop in Singapore. Last time I remember seeing, they had two full...
22 grams is way too under 27grams. If I am not wrong, such "coins" are magnetic and if they really do stick on a magnet, well there you go, struck...

Speaking of cuteness, I just got this coin: [img] I have no idea why the Czech bank had trouble selling this proof coin as well as the UNC. They...
You'll never know. This is one example that I really wanted to buy straight from the Japanese Mint. [img] When it was first released, it was...
I am curious though, what happens if you use non-silver coins, are they just difficult to work with?
nanowarrior that is interesting. You might want to weigh it and compare it against a silver and the nickel clad quarter. That will definately tell...
Oh did I say I bought this for a dollar? [img] An undamaged sample in a similar grade will cost at least 200+USD (likely to be more), thanks to...
I really don't care as long as the price is right. Chances are, most of the holed coins that I have are so scarce that when I do find an undamaged...
