There it is! 昭和六十三年 or the 43rd year of the reign of Emperor Showa (Hirohito) or 1968.
I really like this series, but I haven't purchased a single one. It's strange, every year I look forward to the design and every year I promise to...
That's actually the same side showing in the first photo. The date is right below the "10" on the reverse.
The Asian coin with a 10 on the back is a Japanese 10 Yen coin. The side with the date isn't showing in the picture, but these have been minted...
1881-S Morgy - NGC MS65 [IMG] [IMG]
That was awesome! I do wonder if it really dates to 1907. For some reason it seems a little later than that to me, but I didn't see any dates and...
Wow - I haven't heard the words "First Day Covers" for what seems like decades. They used to be a pretty big deal and I think I still have a small...
Here are my nicest Abe head cents - both graded MS66. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Here is my nicest "Liberty wearing a headdress" cent, purchased years ago. I don't have enough of these. [IMG] [IMG]
Another beautifully mutilated coin... but this time a quarter! I usually only see cents. I love it! Thanks for posting!
I agree that it has an "off" look overall. The reverse in particular looks strange. But it could be the photos. If you have a scale, try to weigh...
I used to bring wads of change to my bank and they would just dump it all in a machine that would count it and credit my account. Have you checked...
Interesting experiment. I'm not absolutely sure that the obverse and reverse are the same coin, based on the photographs alone. I also have no...
Though this thread originated in 2018, it's still very relevant for everyone on this forum, namely, if it's worth counterfeiting a 2018 AME then...
It's difficult to describe the feeling of looking at a coin and seeing a non-clad, purely silver edge. Not to mention a stack of them. Yum.
I see the gold Reiwa coin selling on Ebay between $1,400 - $2,000. Yikes. That's more than I would want to spend, regardless of the quality of the...
This is one of the nicest 1/2 Sens I've ever seen (although I'm sure nicer ones exist). As usual, pictures don't do it justice. It glows with full...
Fantastic Edward the Confessor coins! Wow! Whether or not he actually made the same promise to bequeath the crown to both Harold Godwinson and...
Anything I no longer deem special I try to sell. I just unloaded a bunch of stuff on Ebay that no longer really honked my kazoo. Impulse buys show...
Is that an online article? If so, can you post the link? Thanks!
