I have two methods depending on the situation: Situation 1: The coin's starting price plus shipping is already at my upper limit for that coin. In...
Thanks Gary!
I have one more. I can't find it in Krause under any of the countries that come to mind.
Thanks again for the info!
Thanks for all the info. That's interesting about the possible counterfeit. I don't have time right now but I'll check it out later and see if I...
I decided I had to go out and get a Russian 5 kopek after posting this thread, and I got it today in the mail. This thing is a monster! It feels...
Here I have two Chinese coins. The 20 cash is in rough shape, but I still liked it enough to pay a quarter for it.
I'm hoping to get more info to identify these coins. I believe two are from Japan and the other from Taiwan, but that's all I have so far.
In this group, I know two are Japanese. I don't know about the last one. The two Japanese are the same denomination but I think different years.
I just bought some neat, older Asian coins, but I don't know much about them so I'm hoping I can get some ID help. The first three all have a...
Many of the more recent New Zealand coins have mintages around 10,000, so that makes them very hard to come by. I don't know why they made so few.

I agree that Argentina has some nice coins. I don't specifically seek them out, but anytime I see one at a good price I grab it. I was ignoring...
Here's an 1881 Haiti 2 centimes 1884 Sarawak 1 cent 1909 Netherlands Indies 2 1/2 cent. These are also about the size of a half dollar.
These are more the size of a U.S. half dollar or old British penny, but they're still nice. 1811 Russian 2 kopeks 1833 Spanish 8 maravedis 1894...
About a year ago my local coin shop had one of the 5 kopeks and they wanted $75 for it. Maybe that date was especially high, but it was too much...
Here's a few more: China Ho-Nan province 100 cash (can anyone tell me the year on this?) 1857 Uruguay 40 centesimos 1854 Upper Canada 1 penny token
