I've always avoided buying anything from overseas on eBay, but I am working on a set of British pennies and there were some I could only find in...
I really like world coins, but I feel like most post-World War II European coins are very blah. And now they have the euro so you don't even get...
In one of those little ironies in life, a few months ago I was trying to get the 1938 S and kept getting outbid on eBay. I went to my local coin...
I finally bought most of the ones I need, but one I'm still holding out on and can't get is one of the 2004 Jefferson nickels, the "peace"...
I've never in my life been handed any of the less common varieties of currency by a cashier/teller without asking for it. That includes dollar...
