Just off the phone with PCGS Customer Service. The maximum diameter that will fit inside a PCGS standard holder is 44 mm, or up to 46 mm if the...
Actually, I do want another patriotic CWT eventually, since I swapped away my Monitor. I miss that one, but the HTT I got in return is still...
Thailand, actually. :)
My outgoing one is still in transit across the globe. No incoming package yet, but the mails are slow.
Lament not if you missed out on this one. As of this post, it's not too late to enter my regular December giveaway. :)
And the oracle at random.org has spoken! Not without some stuttering, as it happens. The first numbers drawn were 17, 1, and then 41, all of...
With Saturnalia upon us, 'tis time to do the drawing. But before I fire up the random number generator, I would like to first add an extra free...
Io Saturnalia, one and all! It's time to reveal my loot. [ATTACH] My Secret Saturn, it turns out, is a fellow Georgian, though he's up in the...
Thank you. I'll try to go find that 70-graded coin and watchlist it. I like some of these itty-bitty Mongolian goldies (the trilobites are cool,...
Thank you, @Kasia. You've proven quite the brainiac here, as befits your avatar. :cat:

I've always got several hundred if not a few thousand bulk World coins lying around. Now, all you folks who think you have a big hoard need to...
I just pulled the trigger on Item B - the 1730 Nuremberg jeton. After shipping and PayPal fees, the total bill was $70.21. Which means that...
And the Augsburg Confession happened in that year, so there's the explanation for the "A C" in the open book that @dadams pointed out. And I...
Oh! A psalm on the reverse! How wonderful. Thank you!
Thanks. Off to read about that. Coins (and jetons and medals, etc.) are such wonderful little history teachers, aren't they?
I don't think the jeton (or any of these) would go stale enough to become "meh" material later. Maybe the modern gold piece, but I could always...
Can anyone help translate the inscriptions on the Nuremberg jeton? I suspect Google translation might not be much help, since that's early 18th...
Thank you. That one seems to be building momentum in the poll.
I recognize that handwriting on the flip and know who your Secret Saturn is! :) (Coincidentally, he happens to be my giftee.)
