Actually not my coin; -just saw it on the internet and was somewhat surprised by the full date and decent mint mark on a coin that far down the...
Just made me laugh too, had not thought to check that. Now keep in mind if the coin moves to 3 cents, than it has had a 50% increae in value....
Well, I suppose there is always the mystic qualities surrounding a coin with no way of determining if it was struck under the last days of Jimmy...
The 1928 Soviet half kopek is one of my favorites, and not an easy coin to find.
Well thank you! I like it too. Something about real small gold coins, --the avatar being a Costa Rica 2 Colons-- that makes them screaming little...
I wonder what the largest or heaviest coin ever slabbed would be. Kind of doubt either of these were cracked-out.
You're probably right. And yet, who looks at anything but the date and mint mark on a 1916-d at first? If you want to see the design elements,...
Okay, it will never pass for finest known. But in the absence of a Fr2+ grade, does anyone else think this coin has a shot at AG3 if resubmitted?...
Well that makes two of us then. I like those Hapsburg coins too. I have the Lady in The Clouds 100 Corona and have always wanted to add a nice...
One of my favorite designs too. I once had the 1976 Chile 100 Peso (KM213) but it was no better than MS60. No real wear, just a lot of cabinet...

I don't think it got much better than this from the Soviets, at least in terms of art. There was the 100 Rouble gold Peter The Great coin that was...
[ATTACH][ATTACH]Mine isn't as nice as some of the others that are slabbed, but a Panama Pill just the same...,,
Very cool little coin. How much gold could have been above ground back then?? The entire known supply of gold world-wide back then couldn't have...
1934 Fiji Silver FLORIN nice AU for wear but XF for color. [ATTACH][ATTACH]
Which reminds me of my all-time favorite Richard J. Daily Sr. press conference back in the 1960s. A young woman reporter asked him "Mr. Mayor,...
That is, afterall, how Johnny Cash stole the Cadillac from the GM factory; one piece at a time in his big lunch box.
$200 in the bank and 7 million in gold in his garage...,,gotta love that....
Well, it's still not as bad as my all-time favorite Northeast Numismatic coin, the 1912 Bulgarian 100 Leva in a PF68 holder. The sword through...
From Northeast Numismatic.... Holy CoW(!) An MS61(!) ---I should let them send mine in for grading, probably come back as an MS64 instead of...
