Thanks for taking the time to break 'em down individually like that. I was too lazy. Nice stuff. Too bad about the cleaning on the Victoria...
Mom left you some cool stuff! Again, I'm not a paper guy, so I'm out of my depth here, but these obsolete types are certainly beautiful, and I...

Be very careful doing the ring test, especially with medieval hammered coins! They can shatter! (Better yet, don’t do it at all!) Since they’re...
