I believe this is related to the Franco-Prussian War. As you can see, someone modified this French 10 centimes so that Napoleon III appears to be...
That's interesting. I wouldn't have thought of that. I know you and I live in the same general area and there's not a lot of good coin shops around.
Here's a French 5 franc note I found in a foreign currency bin. It seems to have been an American soldier's souvenir after landing at Omaha Beach...
Geez, the guy just wants to know what the coins are, not a tutorial for how to use the internet. It's not easy to research Asian coins if you...
I was going to ask you if you had this one. I figured you would.
No, it's kind of far from my house and I had already spent all the money I could at the time. In this hobby you can't have everything...

The hole on this Chinese cash coin doesn't line up with where it should be. Is this uncommon? Any extra value for it? [ATTACH]
I don't know for sure but I don't know why it wouldn't have. It was right after they stopped making the silver 1 peso and there are other silver 5...
I thought of you when I saw that. I haven't had a chance to read up on it but I thought it had to do with the war there. I know in 1848-49 a lot...
Same here. Judging from the other coins in the collection I was buying from I feel like I can trust the authenticity. Whoever assembled it had a...
I think I paid $18 each for these. I love this design too. The coin shop actually had a whole bag of these, probably 50 or so. I wish I could buy...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here are a few I got today.
