Now THERE ya go. How to blast air on a small area without the chemical propellants and cans which run out.
I think @Lunchbox John would like that Portuguese piece. He's just beginning to casually play around with CircCam World coins, as a sideline to...
Don't forget "Preussen". ;)
Ditto! Me too... I sure miss that magic asterisk! As to everything mentioned above, I wish you the best of luck in your crusade. ;) [IMG]*
#1: My first impression was that I liked the contrasting two-tone appearance on the Portuguese 50-centavos piece. That is what I refer to as a...
I was about to despair because I think I'm out of dated Netherlands coins that have been photographed. But lo and behold, I have another 1759 in...
Some people use that canned compressed air, but you have to make sure you don't blow the coin off the desk with it! As far as the photos above...
1759 or Netherlands, to the next player. I picked up this little beauty (a 1759 Holland 1/4 gulden) relatively cheaply, about six years ago. I...
How about 1780 or Russia next. This coin is one of those big, chunky Russian 5-kopeck pieces I affectionately refer to as "whopper coppers". It...

An Italian commemorative medal, though apparently struck in Argentina. We can do 1911, Italy, OR Argentina next. [IMG]
I entirely agree.
The "data overload" theory makes sense. Even with the old printed catalogs, I remember when Krause launched Numismaster and started digitizing...
OK, so Germany or 1924, after all.
I don't think there's much you can do with aluminum, unfortunately, once it gets that porous/oxidized kind of surface.
Great stuff as usual. Out of this batch, I think I like the first one the most. Hmm... [ATTACH] Eh, nahhh. I can't quite place it. ;)
Chewin' gum! Oh. @LaCointessa beat me to it. Just kidding. I agree with @paddyman98 that it looks like old solder.
ROFL :P:banghead::facepalm: Agreed about NGC. That's a classic! Reminds me of this one I posted a while back. [IMG]
Well, you just made ME hungry. :hungry:
