Just as we all do! (Except maybe you, Mr. Fitness with the washboard abs.) ;)
That “yoke” is a T. It’s an H, T, W monogram on Sal’s (upside-down) piece in the OP. Trust me; love tokens are one of the few things I ever...
You're right. It is some combination of H, T, and W on Sal's coin. Fortunately I can read upside-down. ;) Fretboard's (very nice) gold love...
The young Queen Victoria was certainly not bad looking. [IMG] Great Britain: 1865 silver florin of Queen Victoria, "Gothic" type, Die #13 [IMG]...
Nice big silver crown. It is Numista-276 and Krause-Mishler-24. To determine value, we must first distinguish whether your coin is the Position...
Strange subject for a thread, discussing standards of female beauty (or the apparent lack thereof). But OK, whatever. I'll play along. *shrugs*...
A coin of Cleopatra VII (the seventh Cleopatra was the famous one) is on my "to do" list. I looked at some at the FUN show last month, but...
Neat. I do not collect paper money, but have always said that if I did, my focus would perhaps be on Fractional Currency and German notgeld.
I have found a lot of that type in bulk lots over the years.
Old School!

Love tokens are fun. Coincidentally, I just posted a ton of them in the "Virtual 7070" thread. I used to actively collect them. I still have a...
Neat. That is not a North American coin. They are cataloged under Great Britain. These were struck by the British for use in Ceylon (now Sri...
Here's one last love token before I cease that little diversion. I overlooked this one yesterday, when were still doing the 1853-55 Arrows at Date...
1886 -"P. L." below lighthouse and seascape, with partial ornamental border and scroll above. I have a pet theory that the incredibly intricate...
I hope y'all will find this post interesting, and not a digression from the main theme. Back around 2008, I avidly collected love tokens done on...
Good morning. It is Monday the 16th. Today we move on to our next type, which is the... Liberty Seated Dime, Legend obverse (1860-91). Here is...
I’m in the XF camp on that one, though I do agree that it has remarkably nice toning for a clad coin. Normally I’d call an XF-ish 1969-D quarter...
Post the other side if you get a chance. Nice. I’ve had the Hawaiian Kingdom dimes, quarters, and one half dollar (and the quarter in nice MS),...
Ahh, but I don’t object to cleaning when there’s a story behind it, like that one has. That’s one of the nicer “shipwreck effect” SS Republic...
