I shall be very interested to see your Gorinchem Rose Noble. I have one too, in low grade, identified in this forum as a rare type for the...
I find these tiny coins, minted by the Vangiones and Vindeliker Celtic tribes of central Germany really captivating. They were minted around...
Nice "CC" Fretboard! I have to agree, "CC" has got something about it. I own only 2 Morgans, both low grade CC's.
Try this site: http://www.numismatikforum.de/forum7.html I am sure somebody there will know.
Sorry, I missed that. Then I will say it again, you are a VERY lucky guy! PS- want to trade you silver center plug, for my 1795 B-5 in VF30?

Here is another, this one an 1823 dime. Let me know how you guys grade this. I think this one was cleaned at some stage. Thanks! (and also...

OK CoinTalkers, Along the same lines as the 1814 dime I posted, it would be very interesting to hear your opinions on this 1801 dime. (It is a...
Thank you all for your comments. Mark's comment is interesting. His assessment is in agreement with Stacks grading of this coin 22 years ago....
This is the JR-5 variety with the words in 'States of America' cut so close on the reverse die that it appears as one word. A red book variety....
Thanks RLM! I called them yesterday and left a voice message. Also wrote them an e-mail and hopefully they will respond soon. Not all dealers like...
