Looking forward to seeing it Mark. It's tough getting good photos of notes, but really easy on scanners. I guess you'll have to sell your...
Anytime RickieB. I have only the NJ reference right now, as I limit myself to just my home state. I may get into Philadelphia issues later, so...
This is a New Jersey obsolete bank note from Hoboken issued in 1863 according to the Haxby reference on these issues. They issued 1,2 and 3 Dollar...
Your hoard continues to grow Mark. Nice coins as usual. I like the Irish note also and would like to see the rest of it. Congrats! Bruce
Nice Calum, congrats. I don't collect fossils either, but that really is cool. I have great in-laws and neighbors, so I guess I'm double blessed....
Great idea Calum, I wish I'd thought of that. Who doesn't like a buried treasure story anyway. Bruce
I think this is the best advice Snaps. Let us take a look at some pictures first so we can make an educated guess as to what's on your coins. Bruce
Outstanding note Darryl. I see that the Egg Harbor note does have the same "V" vignette as the Canal Bank piece. Congratulations again on a great...
They're beautiful medals you have on e-bay Siggi. I know Mark is drooling over them. Bruce
I never ask for a particular amount off Ryan, I just ask if he can give me a better price. Many times on smaller purchases I didn't even ask but...
I don't buy from them either Irish, but do have a Roosie that I picked up somewhere that's in a bag. It's not anything special, so I just left it...
Yeah Ryan, definitely bargain with a dealer. I just ask if he can give me a better price than what's marked. I never have a problem getting at...
Fun is what its all about Snaps. Good luck and let us know what you come up with. Bruce
Geez, that's beautiful davidh! Especially the Green sand?...dirt?...stuff?...verdigris? hugging Abe like a security blanket. And you say it's...
Siggi, Mark..... Thanks so much for the information on the identity of the building as well as the short history lesson. I'm also very much...
You've created a monster Siggi. :D Mark: Nice new additions to your collection. Just out of curiosity, what is the building depicted on the third...
That's a great pickup Siggi. I feel the same way about picking up unusual or locally issued tokens, especially those you can attribute to a...
No problem tim. The Hard times era, at least as far as token issues are concerned, generally includes those issued between the years 1832-1844....
Good post Tim. It's interesting how manufacturers of Hard Times and Civil War tokens at times made their products to mimic regular U.S. coinage....
Nothing wrong with being old fashioned Ripley, and I agree with IQ as well. There's nothing like having a reference book in your hand to look...
