Really appreciate your resource. Thanks for maintaining it...
Why "Deo Juvante"? What do the posh people of Monaco wish to achieve "With God's Help"? Hasn't God been pretty helpful to them already?
I wouldn't know. I don't collect the "old" stuff. Authentic Korean struck pieces can be very pricey for me in higher grades (which is how I...
Here's an interesting article about an American who visited Korea over 100 years ago, and did some currency exchange. I wonder what accounted for...
Despite being a very gifted polymath, his pedophilia throws it all in the trash. At least for me. It kind of makes me angry, because if you...

Well, if yours isn't a double die, is this an example of doubling? [ATTACH] It's the "은" in the hangul script of a 1967 10 Won coin in the coin's...
I use airtites with the black ring inserts. The inserts are made out of an inert material called Volara. I guess we'll find out in the coming...

I'll see what they say...
