It could be related to those countries' status within the empire. I know on many coins it says "Emperor of India" in the king's title, but it...
It is exciting. I feel like someone else always gets to all the good coins before me so it's a neat experience being the one to have the first pick.
I collect a lot of world coins and I get most of them by searching through the value bin at my local coin shop. Today I went in and their usual...
I didn't know about that site but it is very useful. I was trying to find a spot on ebay to just show the negative feedback but they don't seem to...
Has anyone here ever purchased from the eBay seller aunis_world? I bought two nothing-special modern proof coins from him. I waited and waited as...
When I was just getting started I bought some lots on eBay. Many people sell a certain weight of foreign coins for around five dollars, but of...

I found Canadian folders from Whitman on eBay, but that's about it.
Ripley, do you know what all the letters and numbers mean? Maybe if I knew what they signified it would help. The number before the letter R on...
Hey Ripley, since you seem to know about these, can you tell me what this is? I think it looks like a 5. Is there a 5 reales coin? The year is 1879.
Thanks for the replies. I would have never guessed it was supposed to be that way because it sure looks like an error. It is very ambitious of the...
I really have no interest in error coins but I saw this in the 25 cent bin at the local coin shop and knew there was something weird going on with...
