Hi all! It's a pleasure for me to be stepping back in and hosting this year's Secret Santa swap! As some might know, I had a little health scare...
A few new beauties! These first two coins were raw examples I sent for grading. First up, a 1/84 gulden from Schweinfurt, AU58BN. Schweinfurt is...
Lovely coins and great write up!
It is! I've spoken with @Kasia who was gracious enough last year to take over the process and I'll be back again this year to head it up. Look...

Hi all! I know this forum is mostly US error coins, but I thought I'd throw in a world coin, newly sent for grading by me. A friend on discord...
I really enjoy this design with the conch shell and the one they produced with the flamingoes. When I was a kid, my aunt went on a cruise and...
