Agreed sir. I am not usually a patient person, but coin collecting taught me to be. First it was because I lived in a sparsely settled state and...
I thought about coins while watching my 2 month old. Other than that just posting here.
Lol, if the "dumbest" think you ever do in coin collecting is buy that nice looking IHC I wish I had your luck! :)
Looks like cheap Chinese imitations. "I don't know anything about these coins", yeah I bet. I bet the seller knows they bought them cheap. :(
But aren't having some of them better than none? :)
I have to ask why do you hate them? Personally I don't hate any coin. Some I love more, but I don't hate any. My advice, unless you need to funds...
No sense arguing, its clear he has never dealt with Finance in his life since he assumes companies keep billions in FRN's laying around, and does...
I agree with Gao. Sixth century follis or 40 nummi. From the pic of the obverse I do not think it will rever be identifiable as to emperor unless...

Mary, I would highly suggest getting the Redbook. Its great for new collectors of US coins starting out. Also a copy of the ANA grading book...
Very interesting coin, especially when you here the back story, like a lot of ancients. :)
Not necessarily sir. I have bought strings of 100 cash with authentic examples for $30. In coins, and especially in Chinese cash, age does not...
People deface coins all of the time. Sometimes kids just like to use metal punches on coins. There are tons of these floating around. Anything...
The nickel has damage, so no value. The two indian head cents not worth much, $1 each at most. What color is the 1943 cent? It appears copper. If...
Exactly. When they say China holds "xxx trillion" dollars, it is not FRN's. FRN's are the pennies to the US Treasuries $100 bills. Any argument...
Like I said, the only one I would be concerned about would be the Judean, but it looks fine to me from the photo. The Diocletian would be an...
Really? I would have been more suspicious if it had been any toned color other than what it is. It seems to me the "brown tone" is about the only...
