That is an easy one: S-221 - High 01, corrected fraction (1/100 corrected from 1/000). The 1/0 is plain to see on your coin. Low Rarity 2 coin....
I'll definitely join the other members in congratulating you, Cringely. A very beautiful (and scarce) coin. In my recollection, your...
As an addendum: even after political unification in 1873, some of the major entities, for example Prussia, Bavaria, Wuerttemberg, Baden, and even...
Billy, this is the list of the political entitities in Germany,which were in existence in the 18th and 19th century, and ALL of which issued their...
Nice selection of 1796 Liberty Caps. I also like the S-85 best due to the smooth surfaces (its R-5 rating helps too).

Keep coming back to this Elephant Token - If I recall, this is only the second example which has been posted in CT (at least in my time)....
German states coinage, specially the minors are a very interesting area to collect, billy. Your examples are quite nice. The designs are quite...

That is a really fine coin 900. I see the obverse a couple of points higher than the reverse. EF45 Obverse/VF35 Reverse. In my opinion...
Thank you very much, georgiajeff. With all the talk about fake 1877's, I thought there was something different about the "77" in the date of my...
kangayou, seems like we share a taste for the Peru Peseta coinage. I have yet to add an Ayacucho issue 5 pesetas to my collection, let alone the...
I don't mean to barge into mycohoppers thread, but I thought posting this 1877 1C here, with the same question - IS IT REAL? may help the...
This is another one of my favourite coin designs: The Chile Volcano coinage, depicting the column of Liberty, and a volcano. The country is dotted...
I am. And the U.S soccer team has just scored a goal (9:11 pm) to tie England 1:1. Go USA!
Thanks guys, I think I see traces of a lump below the "7". Cannot see anything by star 11 though, but may be due to the extensive wear....
Hi all, I would appreciate attribution help with the Overton number for this 1807 Cap. It is definitely a large stars variety, but I think...
