Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to get back to that coin shop. I moved a little bit from the area, but I need to get back there because...
One more.
They made special designs in 1932 and most of these are on the rarer side. The 500 and 1000 reis were kind of expensive.
This happens to be one of the areas that I am currently specializing in. You already posted a lot of the coins I have, but here are a few others...
My wife actually got me into collecting seriously by giving me some presidential dollars and the Whitman album to go with them when we were...
I'm currently working on about 20 different things, but the ones I'm focusing the most on are: Mexico 1905 to now non-silver coinage; Greek...
My wife hates to spend money, and if she had any idea how much I was spending on coins she would not be happy. She doesn't really have any hobbies...

True, but it seems hard to see how this could go wrong. It's not a type of coin that is likely to be faked and the price is so low it isn't worth...
In the first case, I'd celebrate. The buyer made an informed purchase and paid what he thought it was worth. In the second place, I'd kick myself...
This was a great auction win for me. Sometimes I see things listed for way less than they're worth and I bid a small amount just for the heck of...
Maybe most of the coin was protected in a 2x2, but part was hanging out while it was being circulated.
I saw this auction on eBay, with the coin described in the title as "mostly uncirculated." Reminds me of the Princess Bride character being...
You mean on shipping? It says that the person receiving the mail has to sign for it, so they can't say they didn't receive it if they did. It's...
