I think you have to put the poor economy into perspective. Even though things are bad now for more people than usual, the vast majority of...
I think Irish coins are neat and that is one of the more attractive ones. It's big and has the deer, and those are two points in its favor. A lot...
You'd probably get about $2-$3 for it on eBay if you wanted to sell it. I recently was working on a collection of Irish coins and the late 90s...
I really like stuff like this. I've never seen one from either place before, so good job!
I put all my coins in 2x2s. Most of them don't fit exactly but I don't see any reason why they need to be so snug.
When I sell I am very cautious about offending buyers, so I don't email them for nonpayment until five or six days have gone by, and then I am...
