Thanks for the info. French coins get complicated in the World War II era.
I got this coin on eBay and I really thought I had something. It is a 1946 France 10 centimes. Krause lists one without a mintmark and just says...
That's why I like to visit a lot of different shops and keep coming back. You don't know what you'll find and you want to make sure to get it...
I'm wondering if anyone has used eBay's new global shipping program for coins? If so, how does it work and how do you like it? I was reading the...
I don't agree. Most coin dealers in the U.S. see foreign coins as junk that isn't worth their time, and most collectors are the same. I find...
Purchasing coins from Mexico can be risky. I've tried it twice. One showed up and one never arrived. The time it did show up, the person at the...
I'm working on the same set. I built most of mine from the junk bin at the local coin shop. There are a lot of people who moved from or travel to...
So then what is considered problem free? Just wear but no nicks, holes, dings, etc.?
From the context I'm guessing lowball is a variety for this coin. Can you explain what you're talking about?
I really only want to have one of everything, so I get rid of my doubles. The ones that are worth anything I sell individually on eBay. The rest I...
Generally I think you're more likely to find silver world coins listed with no mention of them being silver. You will almost never find a deal on...
I sent him a message and he said he used the wrong template.
This guy has five non-silver British coins listed for sale. He says they're silver but the pictures are clear and anyone who knows anything can...
I see, so they changed their system of dating in the 20th century? That is confusing. Krause lists earlier coins as AH 1319 being 1901, but now...
Yes, but it is listed in Krause as Turchia.
The year on the Iranian coin is 1901. (Islamic year 1319).
I'm pretty sure the first one is from Turkey and the year is 1896. The year on one side is 1293 in Islamic. The other side says year 22 of the...
Thanks!
Can someone help me find the denomination of this French coin? It is from 1643, is about the size of a U.S. 1 cent, and is copper.
Do you honestly think there will be a time when currency collapses and people are paying at the stores with obsolete silver currency? If somehow,...
