If you look at his completed listings he's sold two other 1923 Australian half pennies. What a lucky guy!
For those who don't collect the series, you should know this is a very rare coin which my Krause lists at $1,300 in F. So for that coin you'd...
Looks weird to me too. The side with the king doesn't look right. And the seller says "coin or token." Sounds like they're trying to cover their...
Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll check it out sometime. It's hard to find good coin shops.
I live in Chicagoland. How was the world coin selection at that shop? Did they have a "junk bin" with a decent amount of coins in it? I'm...
I started scanning them but never finished. You can see the ones that I have done here:...
It is a scan so that throws the color off a bit. I don't have a way to weigh it right now. Eventually I'll take it to a coin shop and get a...
I like Irish coins. I have a complete set 1928-2000.
Thanks. This has to be by far the best coin I've found in a junk bin. It just goes to show that it is worth the time to check. I think this one...
It could easily be 14 mm. I just used the circles at the front of Krause to measure it. Here's another pic but I don't know if it's any better....
It could be a 17. The character I thought was a 2 could be a 7.
It's 15mm. I don't have a way to weigh it or measure the thickness. It's non-magnetic and has a reeded edge.
No one? I think it's this coin, but the 25 Kurush and 50 kurush look the same. The only difference I can see is mine is year 12 and that was only...
Yesterday I went to my favorite coin shop. It is about 30 miles away so I only go a few times a year, but I like digging through their value bins...
I think I found the monarch year as 12. To me it looks like the 25 or 50 kurus, which is gold, but I'd like someone else's opinion. The 25 doesn't...
Can anyone help me identify this? Most like it's an Ottoman coin, though I know sometimes coins from Egypt or the Indian states can be similar. I...
I've been to a few shows and had mixed luck. In my experience most of the dealers have high prices for common coins. The same coins I get for 25...
I don't know about flea markets, but I do enjoy going to the local coin shop and digging through the bargain bin. That's cheap and you never know...
This might be the best advice. I have already cut back a lot. I have only bought a handful of coins in the last few months. I know that when the...
Thanks for the suggestion, but this area doesn't interest me too much. I have a few tokens, but I don't want to collect something just to collect it.
