(Edit) Gaahhh! Too slow. :banghead: I can do WW1, though... hang on...
I envy you globetrotting world traveler types. I live in a nice tourist destination, but seldom leave it.
And every one with those terrific sandy patinas, too. Boy, it sure would be fun to "put the coil to the soil" in the Holy Land (i.e., swing a...
BTW, there's another French Louis Phillipe 5-franc love token on eBay. (It's at a fixed-price BIN of $75, though, so overpriced in my opinion.)...
Continuing "odd denominations" theme. Brazil: 960 Reis. Next, lets go with "globes" as the theme. [IMG]
Good point. That coin could very well have traveled across the Atlantic without Frank H Green's assistance, and been acquired by him in the...
To get a ballpark AU value, one can average out the $110 XF catalog value with the $300 MS60 catalog value, and the number is $205. (Since AU...
I was able to zoom in on your photo a bit more but it's still not really clear what's going on there. Doesn't look like any kind of...

<heavenly choir> Congratulations! </heavenly choir> [ATTACH] (No elliptical selection tool in MS Paint, so your coin got a wee bit shaved, I'm...
They generally run $500+ on up into the low four figures. Mine cost me $391.20, so I was happy to get a nice piece with an attractive portrait...
The 1988-P quarter is just discolored. Environmentally damaged, as mentioned. Spend it. Really, that's all just spender stuff, but the 1968-S...
Yours looks a bit too nicely preserved for a sea-salvaged copper, though it's remotely possible. I think a very large portion of the total...
Actually, @AncientJoe was the first one who helped me with those Photoshop templates, and I sort of adopted his format. (Imitation being the...
Great looking Classic Head cent! They sure aren't easily found like that, with such smooth, nonporous surfaces. Oh- Did someone say Admiral...
