I get them as big as I can because I have my coins organized by country, and several of them occupy an entire book by themselves. I want to get as...
Thanks for all the info. I had no idea there were so many examples of this type of currency.
Foreign paper money I'm interested in has always just been something with a picture that I like, so it's not really any one theme. I like history,...
I've seen a lot of different German notgeld notes from the World War I period, and they often have neat designs and don't seem to cost much. I'm...
They are nice coins but the values you quote are not realistic. You don't have a coin there that you could sell for more than a dollar online. I...
I had room for a second major and I did it just because I liked it. I didn't plan to get a job with it and it really has nothing to do with what I...
Well, I have a degree in history and I read dozens of history books a year about subjects and places all over the map, and you talk about...
You have very eclectic interests, but I respect that you know so much about subjects that the vast majority of people aren't even aware of.
I agree on the Ottoman, but I'm having trouble finding an exact match. With these coins, there is always a main date, which is the year the ruler...
I have a few others like that that I need for other series I'm working on. 1935 New Zealand 3 pence, 1946 Australia 1 penny, 1925 Australia 1...
Thanks. I'll bet most countries have some modern coins with no real book value that are extremely hard to find, especially those countries that...
I also collect baseball cards, stamps and bobbleheads. I also am always looking for fossils. I love history so I am prone to saving anything old.
Thanks for doing that. I'm not sure if I checked that site, but usually coins like these don't show up on people's radars as being "rare." It's...
Usually my profits are much more modest. I like to buy coins from the dealer's value bins that I know I can sell and list them when there are...
So as I said in my post, I found two of these and so I decided to sell the one in worse shape and keep the better one. The one I sold is the one...
This is what I was trying to tell you. When you go to buy shipping, part of the process is filling out the customs portion. No, it is not a...
I don't think anyone posted this one. It's Polish made under German occupation. The date says 1923 but they actually just used an old pattern. It...
Any time I have sold coins and combined shipping, eBay gives me the option of entering the shipping fee on the invoice. Then when I go to buy...
These were the coins that got me interested in Mexican coinage. That's a really nice one.
Is there something about what they were made out of that makes them liable to getting spots or tarnishing? A lot of the Soviet coins I find in...
Separate names with a comma.
