I'm not sure about these. They all have the same basic layout, and I suspect that they're from the Ottoman empire and just predate the books I...
No one on the board collects French Canadian coppers? Since early American coppers inspire such crazy passion, I thought there would be a few...
Sorry, my camera only goes up to 14 MP. Maybe I should rent some time on Hubble?...
Anyone?

Is there an easy way to tell apart the 72% silver and the nickel varieties of the 1967 1 Gulden? My Krause shows 7m silver & 31m nickel made with...

I recently picked up a Canadian 20 Cent piece. In attributing it, I found that there are 3 different date varieties. Any idea which this one is?...

Seems like a 1977 restrike of something... but I don't know if this was made by a mint or private medal company: [ATTACH][ATTACH] The obverse...
I picked up a half pahlavi from Iran last night: Anyone familiar enough with these to help me grade it? Also, Krause doesn't have mintage...
Beautiful design - I'd love to see it in person to see how it translated to such a larger size. What's the diameter on those?
What's the best resource for learning about the Newcomb varieties?
Saw this today... and missed bidding on it while I was trying to find out more about it:
