Are you just trying to get any and all or specific ones? I've been trying to get all Irish coins myself, which is actually doable since they have...
I've noticed that people are paying way more than the silver value for silver world coins. Take a coin like a British 3 pence or Australian 3...
I'd like to know how he came up with that price. $4.44 for a cleaned, post-1900 British penny. Yeah, can't believe no one bid on that.
Prices going up is only a good thing if you're planning to sell. If you're buying it doesn't help you any. While I may sell my coins someday, I...
I didn't say it was likely, just that it's a World Series I'd like to see.
Yeah, I was going to say Cubs vs. Yankees.
Sounds like you had fun, Chris. Sorry I didn't meet you, but with it being my first experience I was really trying to take it all in and make sure...
I attended the show on Friday. It was my first coin show and I'm glad I had a chance to finally go and see what it's all about. And since I mostly...

Sometimes my scanner scans coins like that. He needs to photoshop that thing down to size.
Ahearn, that may be true, but the ones I'm talking about are probably not the ones that are very collectible. Just like the "uncleaned Roman...
It just occurred to me that the reason I am able to buy so many good world coins at my local dealer is that so few collectors are interested in...
It's neat that it was on a verified shipwreck. It's a heck of a lot better than those "pirate cobs" you always see on eBay. Those don't look like...
What is a "bourse"? I've never seen that word before and thought it was a typo at first, but obviously it isn't.
That makes sense. When I was trying to figure it out, I couldn't read "moneta" at first so I could make out "Nova Stokholm." Once you know what...
It's kind of shocking that here in Illinois where it seems like we have high taxes on everything, we don't have any taxes on this, and so many...
I only sell coins I have duplicates of. I was thinking that it's funny how we worry about how much something is worth when we don't intend to sell...
