I just picked up a 1951 British penny on eBay for $21. The mintage is either 120,000 or 240,000, I'd have to check. I think it's cool to know that...
Thanks a lot for all the information! I would have never found that all on my own.
I have five more Chinese coins and I'd appreciate any help identifying them. I normally wouldn't buy something like this but I heard that they...
That's good to know. I wasn't planning to sell it but it's always good to know you got a good deal. I bought a few other Chinese coins I'll be...
Or even run amok?
Thanks for all the info. That's a big help!
Whenever I'm looking through a value bin I always have to check the dates on the Swiss coins because they could be from 100 years ago or last year...
I think it is Chinese though I can't swear it's not Korean or Japanese. I found this in a dollar bin at my local coin shop today and thought it...

I just picked up a Whitman folder for Canadian pennies, and it lists the large and small bead varieties for 1965. I have had no luck finding info...
I'm wondering who would make something like that. Germany is very restrictive about any type of glorification of the Nazi past. It would have to...
Thanks, but it wasn't a big expense. I just got to the point where I was asking if I'd rather keep searching my change every day or just spend a...
Good to know. Everyone on eBay is going nuts for U.S. silver but I think the silver coins from other countries get a lot less attention, which is...
Sorry, I just noticed you sent me this message. I posted when you asked this question about Fox Valley Coins so I don't have a lot of new info. I...
Lately I've been working on a collection of British coins, and I came across a few that were listed in the wrong spot on eBay and they were a good...
I have a price guide that says these are about 30 cents in the higher grades, so short answer: no.
