It was a frosty morning here in the Golden Isles of Georgia. Though we’re down here in palm tree territory, close to the Florida line, where it...
Do not despair. There is still a chance you could get lucky. Six more lots left to go... not even counting this one (Lot #6)! So really we’re...
Aha! There’s Prize #1 again. Thanks for posting that, Frank. I like when folks take the trouble to post their prizes after they get ‘em. Shows...
Your photos are too grainy to tell.
It's hard for me to pick a favorite. I've always had a thing for griffins, so that Teos stater is probably tops for me. Like the Trajan...
I think Æthelwulf and Billy the Conk are my favorites here, but I like it all.
Here's the Tetricus II from my old collection. The strike is quite incomplete, and yet the portions that did get struck look pretty sharp. A...
This post is just to bump the thread back to the top, so it will be back above all the closed giveaways.
It takes a little while to learn to use Lunapic, but I've grown to really like it. It's worth fiddling around with to learn a bit. Quite useful.
As mentioned, that is an aftermarket set put together outside of the mint, and the coins are either plated with something (chromed, perhaps), or...

Neat idea. I like your low-grade $3 gold piece. It's a cool early S-mint, too. That's a nice type to have, in any condition. The only...
Here is a “kitten triangle” in the bed, before I left for work tonight. (Elvis, Mork, and Mindy). [ATTACH] Not seen in the photo are the two...
And now the sixth day is here. We're only halfway done! Lot #6. On the sixth day of COINmas, @Penny Luster gave to thee... Six silver...
The random number generator has spoken again, and chosen the winner of Lot #5. The number it selected was #204. [ATTACH] And Post #204 202 was...
Nicely done! So it seems I was right about 13th-14th century France, but was unfamiliar with the type.
It should be pointed that the coin in the original post of this thread is also a clad quarter, and also definitely not overstruck on a .800 silver...
Many of the older ones here will not have caught that song reference in the title. I, however, now have it fully embedded as an earworm- merely...
Impressive that you're getting such early ones.
