I need to check out more of the Numista features. So far I have used it only to find KM numbers or weights and diameters and such.
Yeah, I think we all would! That's a neat old note, though. Think of what that could buy (and did buy) 90 years ago. The stock market crash...
I like gold too, and many other things. In PCGS plastic. And I also like the consistency of having all my non-ancient stuff in PCGS plastic...

Well, he's pretty consistently jowly and heavyset-looking. (Alas, that is something I know about all too well. Mirrors can be so unkind. A few...
We're straying a bit afield of the topic of Indian fanams, but that's an excellent point, and pretty much the way I've always felt about it. The...
