Was it in one of the coin shops on the Rue de Midi? Maison Williame perhaps? I used to go there often many years ago. Great place for...
It would be interesting to review the Heritage archives to assess the rate of appearance of S-1,S-2, S-3 and S-4, and to confirm/verify CQR's...
This is the S-241 variety, Stemless. "S" first cut too low, then corrected. Would greatly appreciate your grade opinions, as I am inventoring...
I was going to say, unusual to see Cheetah dabbling in "modern" coins.
Same, but over 10000 miles for me. But boy how I wish I could go! Good luck 900Fine!
That is an easy one: S-221 - High 01, corrected fraction (1/100 corrected from 1/000). The 1/0 is plain to see on your coin. Low Rarity 2 coin....
I'll definitely join the other members in congratulating you, Cringely. A very beautiful (and scarce) coin. In my recollection, your...
As an addendum: even after political unification in 1873, some of the major entities, for example Prussia, Bavaria, Wuerttemberg, Baden, and even...

Keep coming back to this Elephant Token - If I recall, this is only the second example which has been posted in CT (at least in my time)....
German states coinage, specially the minors are a very interesting area to collect, billy. Your examples are quite nice. The designs are quite...
I think this is a nice coin: EF40-45 for detail, with a bit of chatter around the rims, net VF35. (I think what looks like a rim dent on the...
Very nice Ryan, that is a scarce and desirable coin. Your example has a nice level of detail. Congratulations.
Thank you very much, K9coper. Did you ever attend the Patrick Henry Village coin shows at the big US Army base in Heidelberg? It was a very...
That is a really fine coin 900. I see the obverse a couple of points higher than the reverse. EF45 Obverse/VF35 Reverse. In my opinion...
Thank you very much, georgiajeff. With all the talk about fake 1877's, I thought there was something different about the "77" in the date of my...
kangayou, seems like we share a taste for the Peru Peseta coinage. I have yet to add an Ayacucho issue 5 pesetas to my collection, let alone the...
I don't mean to barge into mycohoppers thread, but I thought posting this 1877 1C here, with the same question - IS IT REAL? may help the...
