Looks like your biggish mystery coin is a brass 200-cash coin of the Chinese Republic, circa 1920s. I'm not terribly up to speed on this stuff,...
Well worn, yes, but exactly the look I want. I'm not after lustrous MS Morgans. I want nice original grey circulated pieces with this CircCam...
Check it out. The groovy CircCam 1900-O Morgan you sent me just officially launched my Dansco #7172 album. :) I put the Ikes I got from...

That's awesome. I looked to see if there was a TrueView image on the cert verification page, since that one has The Secure Plus shield label and...
Here is my loot. Many thanks to my Secret Santa, whose identity remains a mystery to me (eastern Tennessee ZIP code notwithstanding). He or she...
