In theory, would I be happy to get a coin for half price? Of course. In reality, no matter how much something is worth, I can only afford to spend...
In my opinion it only makes sense as someone buying something to try to get the best deal you can. The seller could have started the listing with...
Another thing I was thinking was that there was a higher bid and the seller cancelled it because he didn't like something about the bidder.
Here's the listing if you're curious. And another strange thing I didn't mention is that I swear this coin wasn't there at first. I did the...
My local coin shop must have purchased a big group of those French West Africa coins, because I started seeing a lot of them in their foreign bin,...
I'm going to be kicking myself over this one for awhile. I was doing my usual eBay search this morning, world coins under $5 ending soonest, and...

Those are some neat notes you all posted. I wonder on that last 5 pesos from 1960 if that might be the Rough Riders charging. It would seem...

Thanks. Yours is nice, and I only paid a few dollars for it so I'm OK with that.
I know this is in bad shape, and serious currency collectors probably wouldn't want it in their collection, but I think it's neat. 1897 10...
I have the result of an impulse eBay purchase here. The seller said it is a 2 liard from Austrian Belgium, year 1777. I don't have a Krause for...
I don't have that one, but I have a few of the other colored quarters. I don't really care for the concept. It looks too much like something just...
I'll probably bid on some more, but I need to pace myself because they can get pricey.
I was thinking something Scandinavian. Are we helping you win a contest with this or what?
There's one seller on eBay who must have found a hoard of them or something because he will list like 30 of them at a time and then always has...
Sometimes I contact the seller and they offer a refund, but I kind of feel bad asking for it when I'm the one who didn't pay attention. Maybe I'm...
