Very nice. My half puffin I was lucky enough to find in my local coin shop's 25 cent bin. It's not as nice as yours but the price is right. Photo...
I know you said you didn't want to look it up, but this article isn't too long and explains it well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coins_of_Lundy
I picked up this 1802 Ceylon 1/192 Rikdollar for my coins with elephants collection. I still want an 1815 stiver with the elephant but haven't...
It's bittersweet. If you're like me, you spend all this time building the set and then you complete it and never really look at it any more. It's...
Congrats. I know the feeling.
The key was I asked about coins. They didn't have any on display. Sometimes I ask but this is the first time I've ever gotten a positive response.
Nice. At the time I made the purchase I didn't get to look at many of the coins and I wasn't even sure if I'd break even value wise.
Really? When I saw a few in the bowl I was aware that they were reproduced and didn't really think they were worth anything.
I stopped at a garage sale today. It was an older couple and they had a lot of collectibles, so I asked if they had any coins. They laughed and...
great, thanks.
Can anyone explain how you distinguish a b no I from an m mintmark for 1943? The m is no mintmark at all like the P on U.S. money, and if there's...
What motivates a person or two people to pay so far over the value of something that they can easily get for less elsewhere?
Why would they do that though? I've bought from this seller many times and never had any reason to suspect monkey business.
I bid about $3 each on these two auctions for a 1877 and 1878 1/12 anna. The book value is between 50 cents for F and $6 for Unc. I don't see any...
There are a handful of other sites where I occasionally buy coins. Some of them are free and don't charge sellers. The problem is there is a small...
There's always some people who are broke, but there are always plenty of buyers too who are doing OK, and I know other people on here say their...
I haven't totally stopped selling, but in the past few months I felt like eBay must have changed something in their algorithms so that I was not...
This 1937 Irish half crown that I just got in the mail today completes my 20th century Irish set. Ireland issued coins from 1928 to 2000, though...
Nice. I feel like I paid $10 or $15 for my 39 kangaroo coin.
No, I don't have the 1930. I pretend coins like that don't even exist because I know I'll never, ever have the money or the opportunity to get...
