Also be very careful with it. They have been faking these ovr there for hundreds of years. The Chinese didn't invent counterfeiting.
Is that the goal? Best market price paid by a non-specialist? Or is the goal best price appreciation over time assuming you will find the best...
Sogdian, Chach 8th century AD bronze [ATTACH] Here is a coin I bet most of you will hate. I agree its hard to love this coin, but if you...
I believe that is more your browser/site settings then man. I see everything fine with no scrolling and readable texts. OP, sorry for taking...
I guess you have never bought a large collection. You simply don't have time to check for rarities like that, and assume the previous owner would...
[Ctrl] and mouse wheel are your friend. I simply resize on the fly when I come across such posts. :)
I know coins don't carry politics, but I grew up when the Krugerrand had significant "baggage" based upon the government striking them. As such, I...

Telling the difference is easy. All partially silver nickels will have a large mintmark above Monticello on the reverse, even if its a P. Btw,...
Well sir, I don't think you are disqualified in the least to render a judgment. The "even worst" part of all of these military themed coins is how...
I cannot help but notice the correlation between US coinage and ancient Rome's. In the early days of Rome they commemorated ideals such as...
