I know a famous Chilean numistmatist who has authored some books on the Colonial era. I really need to find some good reference books on Chile.
Unfortunately I am unacquainted with Thai coins. My Dad served in WW-II and he went to Thailand immediately after the war and had a high esteem...
I guess this means the 10 Pesos issued in the 1980's? I need to get a better reference book on Chile. I do much better with Argentina, as due to...
I am very interested in coins of Chile and always kick myself for not buying a decent "dos bandaras" 8E when I had the chance. I saw 3 of them in...
Hello All, I joined about a week ago and I collect the above areas (see title). My wife is from Latin America & perhaps that started my interest...
1787 Fugio -- Very nice. I take it that the Bank of NY hoard specimens are different in type than these? I've always been interested in 3...

Hi, Congrats on your interest in Roman. I've been collecting 39 years although my interests have shifted many times. I like foreign as rare USA...

Have an interesting story regarding a Hawian half dollar (1883). Many years ago I was buying a bunch of foreign silver from this old guy (an...
I'd guess ef-40. The wear seems a little rough to be in the Au's, not smooth wear. But I'm a foreign collector: not USA.
Thanks very much. A year ago I joined another numismatic BBS but I could never post with pix as I think they had a rule that one had to have some...
Actually I've liked Gallienus for several years. I think he got a raw deal in the few [one?] history that survived from that era. He was the son...
Hi & Thanks very much for your message. The Claudius II is quite nice in person and apparently quite rare: I've been helped by Dane aka...
[ATTACH] This one I received 2 weeks ago. It's also quite close [chronologically] to my username of Gallienus. It's an AE42 (bronze, 42 mm dia)...
