While ruminating over what an "FTP program" might possibly be, the best I could come up with was that FTP = "FEL TEMP PEPPERONI", which implies...
Do you mean that bizarre "Best Answer" that had it all lit up in green, briefly? That was odd.
Thank you for that. I needed to hear that just now.
That IS pretty cool fourree, though. I'm a bit too absorbed with aesthetics to collect those, personally, but I have to admit that on the...
My intention here is to create subthreads (individual coin writeups) for all the coins that lack them, to link to from my periodic Eclectic Box...
What's there to be "distressed" about? By all means, feel free to PM me if you're distressed about something.
Geez, @TIF, give a fella some time! Did you read Post #2? It's taken me two days just to get this far, and I've got another couple dozen...
I'm with @Bing. Like that capricorn. Like the looks of the Euboia, too, from what we can see of it.
Cool countermarks for sure.
Thanks. Maybe I've spent just a few too many years around people who obsess over the minute difference between a 66 and a 67 on the label of a...
Ooh! Speaking of beasties! What a beauty! Great portrait, and it has a bird. Add in an ouroboros* on not just one but both sides? You've got...
Now if they'll just do some stuff to make the site a teensy bit more user-friendly... :rolleyes:
No. The 1946 has traces of something that was added outside the mint. Looks like it was gilded at one time. I can't tell from the photo of the...
Thanks. I gave it a nine myself. "Nine" is how I've voted in most (not all) of the polls I'm now embedding in these writeups. Obviously there...
I think when the time comes for me, I'll be keeping an eye out for wolves, birds, or dragons, if not the quintessential "porcupines". I'm all...
Yep! That '58-D has tiny traces of original Red in a few of the recesses.
I deleted the nonsensical poll, thereby robbing everyone else of the chance to choose between "6" and "6". But not before I added one last vote....
No, that is damaged. This is what a coin with traces of original mint red looks like. Technically it is a Brown (BN) coin, but as you can see,...
It IS a bronze cent. Technically all US small cents from late-1864 until mid-1982 are, with the exception of 1943.
As it should have. You hunt long enough, you might eventually find some late-1950s Wheat cents with traces of intact mint red. Doesn't happen...
Separate names with a comma.
