That ZAR piece is cool. Probably came back as a Boer War memento, who knows.
Yes, I know about Victorian enameled coins, as I used to be a love token collector. They're not my cuppa tea, usually, though some can be...
I too have mixed feelings. That is garish and yet kinda cool at the same time.
Hi, Charles. That is a modern tourist replica of a Spanish Colonial "cob" coin. It's the sort of thing sold in museum gift shops in places like...
Umm, there are only 5 prizes. Seriously.
Wondered what your avatar was until now. Don't forget to specify the order of your prize preferences.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing that. It looks like a really fun album. I like the idea of filling an album mostly with bulk cherrypicking finds....
Wow, FF Jr., that is a seriously nice Indian cent for a young collector! I got my first when I was 10 or 11. It was the most common date (1907),...
Neat off-center cent. Wheat, or Memorial? Looks like a ca. 1969-ish Memorial, from the portrait. If you clicked the link for Prize #3, you will...

Handsome coin, @Ancient Aussie. I hope to have some heftier Republican bronze someday. They must feel nice in the hand. Only recently added my...
By golly, that's it! Asian chupacabras! Who knew? :eek: :vamp: :p
Mat, yours looks to have a similar critter, whatever that is.
Sounds like fun. I know relatively little about Japanese coins and still can't yet even read date numerals without consulting a chart, but I like...
You mean like I said in the title? ;)
Cool! Gotta love those rare World Coin Danscos! I completed all three of the Irish ones about 15 years ago. I'd be interested to see the page...
Sure, they're teeny-tiny, but you've gotta love cheap old gold, right? I think the tininess adds to the charm. If any of y'all are in the know,...
Wow, now that's cool. I've never heard of a graphite token before. I guess if you're ever wanting to fill out a grocery list or do a crossword...
Thanks. I'll lock it. Weird thing, though- I don't see the post you quoted? Yours is the first reply I see since 2009. Perhaps another mod...
