Does anybody know about this on-line coin resource site? They offer a years subscription to all of their on-line catalogues (and i guess general...
Thank you all, and thank you H.T for the attribution help! Eduard
The Flying Eagle design is one of my favourite U.S coin designs. There is something about it that captivates me. It is simple, yet elegant and...
Many of you may have seen the recent Exhibit post by Fisch on the die progressions of 1804 half cents. Excellent work! I leant a lot on a series...
Garrett, my feeling is that your coin is real. The appearance looks OK (but cleaned), as does the edge device. I have a few of these, and yours...
Thank you VERY much! This is very helpful. There are so many varieties of the NJ cents. (I was also intrigued by the lack of a visible date,...
Like most people, i guess, i have no trouble spotting really obvious cleaning, specially of silver coins. Unnatural sheen, hairlines from harsh...
Thanks guys. I must say i would not have guessed the 1825 1/2 cent had been cleaned, i rather like the looks of it actually. But, that is why i...

Mark, that coin is quite nice, which i would grade as XF45, not quite AU. It is a nice specimen which i would gladly take into my collection....
Very interesting post! I learnt more by reading your post about the revolution of 1790, than i did in all of the 10 years that i lived in...
Here is an 1816 cent. I posted this coin once before but the pictures were no good. Please let me have yout opinions as to grade, and hopefully...
Even if i don't actively collect IHC's, i'd have to say those 2 are quite nice!
Hi Mark, here are some close-ups of the date. The date does seem a bit irregular, but i cannot detect a crack. Is there anything particular there?...

Why England??
