That's exactly the kind of thing I was talking about when I said it was a complicated question. For when inflation in one specific country is...
Yeah they had more gold in them but they were not coins struck for circulation. They were actually commemoratives, struck in honor of the 100th...
I never did answer your question. Well, I watched a guy on TV once, it was an old Errol Flynn movie when I was about 7 years old. That's what...
Ahhhh - the ever present rooster on French coins. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Why they even wore them on their hats :jawdrop: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
It makes perfect sense. It's all caused by one simple thing - over usage of the dies.
Seeing as how you like to "run off to Google" Jeff, try Googling this sometime - GDJMSP. Know what you'll find ? There can be only one ! And...
Funny how that works aint it :) Why some folks might even think stuff like that was planned :D It wasn't of course, well not recently anyway...
That's precisely why I said I get your meaning Jeff :)

I can relate to that as well :) And while this may be somewhat disqualified since it was an essai and not a design chosen for actual use, I...
This part is actually a fairly complicated question for a couple of reasons. One would be if we take inflation into account, all kinds of things...
Boy ! I don't even where to start with French designs I like. But if I did start, I think I'd start with this one from 1364. I'm certain all the...
Yes ya do, or you wouldn't even be asking the question. So, just go ahead and do it ;)
Guys, things have strayed drastically from the discussion cash here. You can talk about end of the world scenarios and prepping all ya want - take...

War is only 1 possibility, but I reckon it depends on how one defines long. I say that because of something that happens a whole lot more often -...
