I got this neat German 5 marks yesterday for 10 cents from a dealer's junk bin. Not bad for a pretty coin with .22 oz of silver.[ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I think it's great. They've made some changes recently that actually help me sell coins. You can have 100 free auction style and still ad buy it...
Emerging markets are also popular, like Brazil, Poland, India, Russia, China. And since you are a dealer, I'd say pay attention when you see...
This has happened to me before too. I hate when they do that. Contact them and get your money back. I like your Iceland coin. That's one I...
Besides the original article posted, I also read some of the articles linked at the bottom of the story about modern world coins. It seems like...
I think African coins in general and colony coins are a growing market right now. I can't say why people are interested, but I've noticed on eBay...
I recently read a book called "The Downfall of Money" that covers the inflation in Germany after WWI. I'd recommend it to anyone on this board...

I can see the H on one but I have three others with either an H or KN that I can't see at all. These have to be the toughest mint marks I've ever...
