I've recently started a collection of the shooting 5 franc coins, if only because I managed to snag a Dansco Switzerland Commemorative Continental...
The worst in experience are the sellers from the Russian Federation who mysteriously have all these nice, key date coins for rock bottom prices....
I've gotten quite a kick out of the silver LMU coinage, as well as associated coinage that was minted to the same .835 standard. Problem is, I...
Definitely the 1906-S Philippines Peso I picked up at a flea market for five bucks. Should've foreseen the inevitable disappointment when it...

I'm impressed by the condition of the coins depicted. I've got a 7070 that's nearly complete, but a number of the coins, especially the Seated...
Until, of course, it became clear that there simply wasn't enough gold to back up all of the currency outstanding. Oops!
I'm a huge fan of the 10 and 20 pesos of the Mexican Republic. Tiny mintages overall, yet not nearly the price of American double eagles of...
I wouldn't do it. The example in the pic looks decent enough, but I've seen way too many fakes posted on Ebay from Chinese sellers to take a risk...
I had a similar experience, except that I switched from US to world coins. In many cases, I've found some amazing coins with tiny mintages by US...
