I've been keeping people on the new VAMWorld discussion board updated with what's going on regarding the sun setting on Wikispaces and the...
F15.
Well, considering one of the board has instructions, "Clean your specimens with a soft eraser or a little vinegar before placing them in the...
Not her fingers. She's holding someone else's severed hand. (No, not really.)
I tend to keep coin stuff off my desk at work, but I have been known to be typing in a keyboard under pieces of paper and other office debris.
Just picked up a nice 1723 Wood's Hibernia Farthing. I think I now have 4 coins for the 1723 slot of my prime number set (Rosa 1p, 2p, this guy,...

I'm wondering if there was even the capability to strike one in anything but pewter in America in 1776. You'd need a hefty, 200+ ton medal press...
