That's a handsome setup. No doubt very well organized.
Wow. I had never heard of nor seen these.

Good point. There are some things that are so rare and important that the rule of aesthetics flies out the window.
While I’m probably not much better at Mercs than you, I see a solid AU coin there, and a solid buy at 15 bucks.
From you, I consider that high praise. And I agree that BN is not a bad thing.
That’s why I love CircCams so much. In AU and above, when there’s lots of luster present, I do like a white coin just fine. But in silver XF and...
Thanks. I used to have sucky photos of that $10 Lib above because I didn’t want to resubmit it for TrueView imaging and lose the CAC sticker. So...
Nice pickup! That one looks a smidge sharper than my XF40 example above! Did you submit it, or keep it raw? I reckon that’s a 45 at least, if...

Thanks. I like it when folks “play favorites” and mention which coins they like the most, and why. It’s valuable feedback.
Love the toning on that 1745 shilling! The LIMA coins are neat. I think the Queen Anne VIGO coins are interesting, too.
I chose 1911 for my $10 Indian because that was my paternal grandmother’s birthyear.
Guess they don’t have large dollar wrappers anymore. Not surprising, considering it’s been 48 years.
Still getting Ikes from the bank? That’s fun.
I’ll accept that. Three choices still expresses a preference, which is why I make people pick something up front. I like knowing which lots are...
Those poor little half dimes often did. Trimes, too. It was a big, tough world out there for a relatively thin little coin.
Hmm. You think? Maybe I should crack it out and resubmit? I’d be able to get professional photos that way. If I did that, I’m pretty sure it...
That’s not so far off, except I do treat the giveaway inventory like another one of my collections, and try to give away fun stuff that’s either...
