As to why a local authority could strike a coin, Judea was an eastern roman province. Most of these provinces had the right to strike local bronze...
I hope my post didn't offend you sir. I wanted to just strongly post to let others know, (many more people read this site than are members), that...
For some. For others, like me, it is because I epically suck at pics.
I didn't say it was sir, but we do not know either its grade nor your friend's. These indians typically sold for $50-100 more than the liberty...
Depends on a lot. Indian heads have always sold for a premium over liberty heads. Then there are grade, cleaning, etc concerns. No easy way to...
Sorry to resurrect an old post, but what the heck? The old numbering system would allow up to 10 quadrillion coins to be certified. This was...

Boy, you are rough. I would have bid at least melt. :)
I am with Eduard. Go to local shows, check out auction sites like Heritage and others, find a good dealer and let him know what you are looking...
I hear what you are saying but I really don't relate. I buy for the sake of buying, because it is interesting to me, or I like it, or because by...
Thanks for the link. I don't know why, I have never gotten excited about these pieces. I mean, a private token minted by a NYC jeweler? Why all...
It could have. One of the things different about ancients Jolumnga is our patina can get "thick", meaning the patina sometimes makes it harder to...
Plus other things going on as well Paul. The saying that coins are a bad investment is in generalities. Its because MOST people either make...
If you are buying only for silver investment, the "good ones" are those cheapest over spot. ;)
I bought one a few days ago, (basically to apologize to Treehugger and be able to give him a hands on opinion). Eh, to me it reminds me of a...
