A friend txt'd me and wants me to go. Room rates for the show dates are still the same price and my woman friend dropped out so I can get a...
My estimate on the whole collection is maybe $1,300. The Macedonian tet is apparently the biggest & best coin and that's not a particularly good...
Nope, I just agreed with Kanga: but I voted for the twin peppermints up the nose. But at least it's original rather than having been dipped by...
For a moment there I was confused. Were you posting about a Shield Nickel with Rays (1866 - 67) or a Buffalo Nickel with Rays?
From their repeated showing of it, it appears that the Macedonian tetradrachm is the largest, best preserved, and maybe the most valuable coin....
I hate to break this to you but it's not 1861; it's 1871.
Stack's: Anaheim, CA, 10 Aug 2016, lot# 20574 That's the advantage of having a coins website, which I programmed myself in HTML btw. I can look...
She's been telling that story for a long time. I'm going to guess that she got that thing in the 1950's or 1960's. Running a retail store in...

I just watched most of it. I did skip thru the log intro and a few bits where the difference in types 1-3 was explained. Very nice 1901 by the...
It's my belief that coins are exceptionally hot right now on all levels. I'm hoping that the situation changes sometime in the next 5 years....
That's a very nice piece and is very useful to see. It's probably around the quality that I'm looking for. If you have a hi-res photo could you...
Unfortunately in the States one rarely sees them nice. "60" and often 61 grades and occasionally 62 in the US can denote a worn coin using the...
Thanks for the insights. There are a couple of dealers whom I like in the Ancients and World field. Ever since Clark A Samuelson (US Coins, TX)...
And for a mostly unrelated question & since you two seem somewhat experienced in the British coinage area... I'm looking to improve upon my 1797...
Probably correct but it has a number of other things going for it which is why I like the piece. I am simply more attracted to the early Liberty...
Someone sent me a photo of a pretty Wildman taler. Unfortunately, it seems to have a deep knife-made test near the Wildman's leg measuring 2 cm...
Well, Kunker just sent me a book: The Early Dated Coins of Europe 1234-1500, 2nd edition, 2007,2019. Appears well-written & with many color...
Somehow I missed both sales. However, my economics are not going well and I am exceptionally conservative on coin pricing at this time. Do you...
