At least you don't have to deal with all of the bullion coins from my birth date. It would be neat if you had a list that others on CT could see...
I figured that, just called it a gum eraser. They sound fun.
I don't personally think enough of the steps are there to count as FS.
Interesting. I thought about the dust and oil in the AC runoff. Maybe I will try multiple types of water in the future and compare. How long do...
I see Oklahoma listings and New Mexico listings on the pictures you linked. Am I missing something?

P.S. I have always found it funny how long the posts can be in the ancient coins forum. Now, I can see just how much there is to talk about them.
Hi there everybody! I while ago I bought 10 uncleaned ancient Holy Land coins from a website called "Dirty Old Coins." I did not know much about...
It looks like that one might not be full steps. I think if it was graded it would come back UNC Details: PVC Residue or Environmental Damage. Both...
Those are some really cool and nice coins. I have never seen that Peruvian issue before! I like it! I believe the Mexican piece is a token,...
