I recently moved to a new area and I just did a Google search to see what coin shops were in the area. I was excited to find one just a few miles...
I like this coin a lot, though I"m surprised you didn't have one if you wanted one. They're pretty common. I was buying them for 25 cents and...
Thanks for the congratulations everyone, and nice coins Siberian Man! I have to go do some important stuff now, but I'll check back when I can.
The last one I have is a 2011 20 cents from Australia featuring Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Well, today's my wedding day, and in honor of that momentous occasion, I wanted to post some wedding-themed coins. Please share yours too. Here...

I bought a coin a week or so ago on eBay from a seller called raccoon_on_roof. I sent payment and he refunded it, saying, "Paypal wants to hold my...
I can tell you that regardless of what the book says, no one pays a premium for these. I sold a lot of Mexican 20 centavos awhile back and $1 per...
Yeah, it's kind of neat. I'm not sure what it is supposed to be. Some kind of flower?
