Shoot me a message if you like, and when I'm on a proper computer with a mouse and keyboard, I'll give you some links to sellers who have...
@Deacon Ray- I like your style, and what you do. And if you want to slab those widow's mites and such, go right ahead. They look classy like...
As to the Judaean coins in the OP photo, I would think they might appeal more in the pricey plastic to some of the noncollecting general public,...
I slab mine, fully cognizant of the points TIF brought up, and that by so doing, I'm bucking tradition a bit. Note, however, that while NGC won't...
Nice stuff, y'all. This is presently my one and only CWT. I already posted it in the big Exonumia thread, but am delighted to have an excuse to...
Excellent! Sweet grab for 99p! You've got a coin of two of the most famous monarchs in history, there, 500 or so years old, for the price of a soda!
Thanks!
You're welcome. It was fun. I was just glad to see something that I at least had a partial clue on! (And FWIW, I don't think the York Coins...
Sorry, seems I botched that link somehow. Try again Aha- the stupid autocorrect on my tablet changed "htm" to "him" in the URL. Pretty much...

I need to get that. Never got past my ancient (Win95!) MGI Photosuite software, and i don't even have that anymore. (Probably wouldn't work...
Spanish. I am pretty sure it is a maravedis denomination of the very famous Ferdinand & Isabella, who bankrolled Columbus so he could sail the...
Take it from a 40-year numismatist AND detecting veteran (I started both in 1976): you ain't gonna get rich off that 1889 cent, but its value as a...
I thought about this over the last day or so, and every time I said to myself: "This guy just traded a bunch of DEAD BUGS for some mind blowing...
It is rather simplistic, though appealing enough to me. Remember this is a temporary "filler" (like the German half-mark), to plug the two gaping...
Brown, thick, n' chunky. 'Tis a good set of attributes, in copper coins just as it is with peanut butter.
That counterstamped Ike is trippy! Speaking of karma, @Miketexas just had his collection stolen, so in light of the good turn h8_modern did me...
I hope it does. May your next transaction partner be reading this. And as far as I'm concerned, I'd be more than happy to reciprocate by sending...
I saw one of these in a museum once, and even though there were MILLIONS of dollars of coins and currency there, including some very rare early US...
