Another thought is if you wish to make sure you are getting good pieces for your collection how about going and seeing them in person? Go to Long...
The reason I saw why you guessed Judaic Mat was the material looks like judaic bronzes, and a couple of the designs are a little similar, (star...
To the OP, I would say NO. Did the mint promise you the RP would not ever be minted again in 2012? If they did you may have a case. If not, the...
I honestly do not know. What I am seeing, (to my non-expert Roman eyes), is a later reverse due to the characters in the field and overall feel,...
I can see why Mat would say Judean, but I believe these are more medieval. I would start there, maybe Spanish.
In other words, in coin collecting if your first words out of your mouth is "what is that worth?", you are doing it wrong.
I am just a grouchy old coot. Hey, if someone likes the coins, no matter what coins, good for you. I mean it, I am happy whenever any...
Sorry Amanda, but I agree with Fatima. Throwing out an insult calling everyone on the thread ignorant and then refusing to state what you are...
Maybe next he will "overstrike" some chain cents and "improve" them.
Man, sorry I missed the story. So the mint catches heat for their handling of the 2011 set, and then they do THIS? Are they intentionally trying...

Well, I would be in between you guys. I would say aVF for the coin. Yes only the higher points are worn, but worn very flat. I would not pay VF...
I agree with Bill, but I wouldn't be a buyer at that price. While I am willing to overlook a lot, (one can simply look at my collection to know...
I know a lot of salesmen say this, but there IS such a thing as good debt and bad debt. Good debt is a home mortgage, student loans used...
Lol, I kind of wish I did still drive it. Wife took it, so I had to go out and buy myself a new car. I got an Acura MDX.
I wouldn't say lucky, he probably paid most of it as he went. I graduated with my MBA with zero in student loans, I paid for it as I went. :)
You sound very much like me Provotdo. I had to pull myself up by my bootstraps also, and was the first grandchild on my parents side to ever...
You were the ONLY sane voice on CT Yak? Maybe I should go back and look to see what Cloud and I were saying back then. ;)
