I don't have the slightest idea what any of you guys are talking about, but it's still cool! I would collect ancient coins...really, I...
Guy: I'm the same as you...I would never charge to look at a collection. It's too much fun! But, if offered the opportunity to purchase the...
My 1798 large cent, because it was given to me by my father.
So sweet. The nicest gifts are the unexpected ones.
Please leave it alone. It was struck as a proof, well over 100 years ago, and it's already been badly treated enough. Do you really care what...
Oh, yeah...don't drop it further to try to open it. I wasn't trying to say that. I have used a boxcutter to go along the seam, but...

When I inadvertently purchase collections of coins that come from smokers, I just wash the common coins in good ol' soap and water. I am not...
It's tough to tell in the old (non-edgeview) holders. Counterfeiters have put, for instance, a milled-down obverse and milled-down reverse of two...
By the way, here's the ultimate pocket piece: From the San Francisco Chronicle: "John Feigenbaum flew out of San Jose this week in first class...
I don't carry one, but I think I'm going to start. I plan to implement the tip I read on a thread here about carrying around a cleaned coin for...
