I enjoyed the paper as well. There are improvements that could be made in definitions and terminology and, perhaps, if the system is ever...
The coffee holds out all day but if you want cookies you have to arrive early.
Maybe we just need more interesting posts. That statement is directed at YOU! If you mean me it's an inside joke that would take 20 minutes to...
You might want to shop around a little. Private collectors can be very interested in some of these. You might get a deal that's contingent on...
He may have weird hair but at least he's not in bed with ramps. ;)
Yes. It's either FS or it's not. It's either 99% FS or it's not. The problem is there will always be "tweeners" AND differences of opinion....
Surely they tease the guys who collect modern Byzantine!
There's no standard definition for "full strike" for any coin in any series. Any definition should really be adjusted to reflect the specific...

Identifying countries gets pretty easy pretty fast. Some specific coins are much tougher. For example "Dansk" is always Denmark but not all...
It's mightily difficult to believe you got a Gem '83 quarter. Any BU at all wholesales for about $20 and Gems go much higher. Are you sure they...
