Leave it to Steve to have something like that. He always comes up with some special pieces. I bought many tokens from him over the years. Bruce
Geez, Sal, I wouldn't mind meeting a few pesky girls. My wife wouldn't like it though. I mean, I don't know what the problem is.:D Bruce
A nice addition to your collection even if you don't know where they came from. They add interest. Bruce
You're right, it can be done. I've done similar but not with gold. If the interest is always there and a willingness to sacrifice a bit you can...
Yeah, an expensive addiction.:eek: Bruce
I don't care about the scratches. It's a beautiful coin despite the problems. Bruce
Maybe we're missing an important point here other than just dollars and cents. I just keep my silver coins and tokens for their beauty and...
I have a few collections I'd like to donate to a museum or library at some point, but wouldn't consider an institution like the British Museum....
A great price for a wonderful old half dollar. I would have gladly paid $55 for it so you did very well. Bruce
I don't know much about these issues but that's a beautiful coin. I have a 1960 Half Crown in my collection. It's also nice but not nearly as good...
I'd take the Fugio. I love colonials so it's an easy choice for me. Years ago I had an extensive collection of colonials but I don't remember if I...
Good, two is always better than one. BTW do you know anything about the Cerro Rico Hoard? I love hoard and shipwreck coins. Bruce
That 70 is really special and the 69 ain't so bad either. Nice rounds to keep. Bruce
It's hard to tell because there's a lot going on with the coin. Nevertheless, a great old piece. Congratulations! Bruce
Sounds about right. I'll bet that happens quite often. Bad for them, good for you. Bruce
I've always wondered about that too. I've gotten coins back in the past with "genuine" but no reason given. Very frustrating because you don't...
That's a nice set of nickels. From different rolls I assume, but the source might be the same...someone's collection? Bruce
That poor coin's had a hard life in it's 22 years. I'd put it in a nice new slab and give it a comfortable place to stay with all your other...
Tree houses don't.:D Bruce
Yes, we need pictures of the whole coin. The close ups can be confusing without context. Bruce
