The 80 reis is slightly bigger than an Ike dollar. I put it in a 2x2 meant for a dollar, but the edges are cut off and it was hard to staple. As...
I love big coins, especially big old copper or bronze coins. I just got this 1832 Brazil 80 reis in the mail today, and I think it's awesome. It's...
I am someone who tries to collect sets, and I can say that as the size of the set increases, the likelihood of me pursuing it decreases. I was...
Even at the most basic level, Canada has quarters featuring individual Olympic athletes. I don't know if they are general circulation or just...
Baseball cards had the same problem. There were three or four main makers, each of which made one set a year. Then new companies came out and...
You both make good points about prices rising. When wages are expected to always increase, prices also increase and if you're lucky, everything...
Also there's the fact that the drachma is the Greek equivalent of the dollar, yet at the end they were producing coins in 50 and 100 drachmes...
Obviously there was something weird going on with Greece. Their coinage is unusual because over a period of about 50 years, they only issued maybe...
This is going to be one of those coins that Krause says is worthless, but when one finally comes up on eBay it will sell for $30. Recently I bid...

Krause lists a 1999 Greek 5 drachmai and 50 drachmai, but I've never seen one listed for sale and other Greek coin sites don't list them. Does...
Thanks a lot, Steve!
Hi gang, I have these three coins that I think are Japanese. I'm hoping someone can tell me first of all if they are in fact Japanese, and then...
I couldn't see the photos, but the one that says "Innocent XIII" on it is probably from the Papal States. He was a pope, and the popes had their...
I often make offers on an item that I want but I know is listed too high, and that I've seen pass through the system several times without bids....
Thanks!
Can one of you knowledgeable ladies or gentlemen tell me what these coins are and where they are from?
Omaha, if you think there's no work that goes into eBay auctions then that just shows that you don't sell on eBay in any serious way. If I list...
Well, since it's tangential to the original purpose of my complaint I'm not going to argue with you about this. I know there are a lot of people...
Separate names with a comma.
