My advice, if you do not wish to sell these on Ebay, would be to go to Central States with the coins and a complete list of contents. Show them to...
I would post who the seller is. I would be glad to add such a fine seller to my list that I look through.
Ok, I understand sir. So what do you think the game is? Trying to make a name for himself? Trying to expand his mailing list? Bait and switch?...
Exactly. All coins are subject to prior sale. There is an internet dealer who has "bargain lists" from time to time. On his last one I responded...
Yeah, I hear you. I have seen ancient copper cleaned so that the bare metal shows. It looks naked to me, too shiny. Even if ancient copper EXISTED...
I thought we all had our comments published here on CT? Gratz Mike. :)
Geez James, they are 60 cents face value alone! To OP, it depends on whom you are selling or buying from. "Normal" ebay prices would be around...
Good eye. The glossy hard green patina is probably the most sought after ancient patina there is for bronzes. While for some reason fairly common...

I would settle for that Mat, lol. My wife is Thai and even collecting Thai coins cannot interest her. Her Thai friends like them, but she doesn't...
Hmmm, ex wife is from Hamburg NY. Good and bad memories. I actually got married in Boston, NY out by there.
Tell you what, you probably would have best off buying BU rolls of cents from the bank. Even the 1856 FE cent would have cost 600 BU IHC's. :)
I wish my family would have been collectors. My mother did have a WL half that sparked my coin collecting when young, and most relatives had some...
Well young fella, I would say let her spend any change she has. This is NOT something to make a stand on. Girlfriends can cost you a heck of a lot...
Lol, there are actually quite a few lincoln's worth more than any Venetian gold ducat. :) I know what you meant man, just had to throw that out...
Yeah, those were in southern Thailand. I think I forgot about them since they weren't the traditional square hole prototypes of the Chinese. They...
Personally, if I was getting back into coins I would go to the show and take a long slow look around. Look at everything for sale. How do you know...
Agreed, it has to be Han, with a slight possibility it could be earlier. I know to most western collectors cash coin looks alike, but if you are...
