All gold, not bimetallic. But it is kinda neat how the bowsprit pierces the border, there, as if it's about to sail right out of the reverse of...
Yes, her illegible coin is definitely a George II copper. He ruled from 1727-1760. I think it's most likely a halfpenny, but it could also be a...
The gaming token is likely from the early- to mid-1800s. It's old, but not as old as the "1790" date indicates. These were made during the...
I'm stumped, and I'm usually reasonably good at the "guess the coin type" game, at least for Western coins. This looks pretty old. Not ancient,...

This is the nicest 2c piece I ever owned. (I sold it and miss it.) I think it deserved the Cameo designation, but it was graded before PCGS...
Or you could get yourself a cork board and some map pins and do a type set that way. Here's a casual cork board project I've got going on the...
Probably don’t wanna use a holey $3 gold piece as a fishing flasher, though. While it would probably work, with my luck, it would end up snagged...
I think the odds of winning here are a teensy bit better than PowerBall’s. ;)
I never managed to personally dig one in my detecting days, though on two separate occasions I was nearby when a dig buddy of mine dug one.
I did use fishing swivels to hang ‘em.
If anybody’s giving away a Stella, I want in! :woot::greedy:
