I hate to feed the troll, but seriously. Reread this passage and see if you can see the fallacy of the logic. It was not made in Hong Kong...
I think I was given this one, it was just brass though so I don't remember specifically. The only one I remember was the award from Kuwait that...
I don't agree it will go back down to $5-7 again, but I also disagree its a "matter of fact". Wasn't it below $10 just a few years ago? Silver is...
I find "having to" buy a coin at nearly any price is the sure mark of a collector. :) Wear it with pride. Dealers or "investors" will buy...
The style of the portrait, it doesn't feel Roman. It feels more 19th century. ALso, on the obverse there is an indentation all around, this was...
It is certainly in the design an ancient roman coin of Augustus Caesar. However, I am nervous about the style. I am guessing its a modern...
Christian, she looks more familiar than just that coin. Was her picture also on some paper notgeld of the period as well? From memory, (fallible...
Is that true for world coins? I am asking, not being sarcastic. I know US grading follows those assumptions, but didn't know if world grading...
I haven't found the articles. TBH I wouldn't know how to obtain them really. My references for Hunnic is Gobl Hunnic and Michiner. I know what you...

Well, I will tell you a story. There was an auction on Ebay once, and was listed at $200 for 68 coins. Poor photos, and the story was this was the...
I just find it interesting how the eight from the lowest won the contest, and there were like 40 higher guesses. Kind of puts into perspective CT...
SO, trying to go through my piles of coins today, and going through my envelopes. I was thinking I was still short a khingila for my Central Asia...
I know it looks like there is no face detail, sorry for the poor pic. In reality you can see detail especially if you turn it, it just does not...
I believe that is Greek for metro. I recognized the greek letters, which is why I thought from the outset it was a roman provincial. Huge area to...
And that is a sign that you are a man sir. If I may, maybe think about cancelling your PMD Victim account and reregister here. I do think this...
I got it for $175. Not a horrible price. Like I said its better in hand. I had some money on me at the show, (always dangerous), so I picked up...
