The letters are the mint mark and the 902,7 is the silver purity of the coin (.9027 pure). Ho A - Hermosillo Mint, Mintmaster Jesus Acosta Ca...
Thanks for the info, GD! I have only gone through three bags of wheaties in my lifetime (including these two). So, I am not experienced in some...
The edge of the coin is like two different coins put together. The top half is amber toned with hues of red and green. The outer portion of the...
[ATTACH] Go ahead! Just do it! You know you want to! This is apparently the third post of its kind, but I've not seen the first two. That is...
I did not read more than the first few posts of this thread as it seemed to be Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. But, I'm glad you found at least some use...
I personally believe that this is because the Chinese artists are exactly that: artists. I believe they take pride in their work and have put a...
In my experience, I have noticed that the designs on the steps are crisp and clear on the counterfeits all the way up the steps. Meanwhile, the...

Looking at the feedback for the listing, it appears only seven people out of forty sales have left anything thus far: 4 negative, 3 positive....

Beautiful note there! I love the aesthetics of the coloring on the face. The SCWPM only has black and white images of it and a description can...
Yes, there is definitely an interest among numismatic bibliophiles. Just as with coins, a seller can ask for any amount for their "product"....
Nice start up of a collection you have there. On your first photo you have a ??? under a token that has 2018 in the middle surrounded by "All...
