Nice. As usual. I looked up Aquilea, so there's a link to the Wikipedia page, if anyone wants it.
That is indeed a dryer coin, so it's post-mint damage, as mentioned.
I also wouldn’t be surprised if there were modern fantasy Edward VIII “sovereigns” struck in gold. Something like that would be a respectable...
Interesting. I did not know that. But since those would bear the portrait of George V, I suspect most type set collectors would not want to use...
I once thought about attempting a sovereign type set by monarch and in looking at various catalog prices, I realized how tough George VI would be....
Here’s a fun short video about these that a friend of mine (@Aethelred) created. [MEDIA] Yep, it seems the “Bigfoot” myth had its origins in...
For those unfamiliar with the type, this is a 1702 “Wildman” 24-mariengroschen piece from the German state of...
Slabbed CircCam CBH for under a hundred bucks? Looks like a winner. I see the little rim ding, now that you mention it, but it falls into...
Yes, they’re relatively common, but quite historically appealing. These Admiral Gardner coins and the Spanish silver from the 1784 El Cazador...
Indeed it it is- quite a strong clash at that. My $20s were imaged in an earlier submission. The $10s I own fortunately already had TrueView images.
I doubt that would have anything to do with the German occupation of Belgium, a century after that host coin was struck (though of course old...
Great find!
I sent these off from the FUN show for Gold Shield reholdering, in order to get the TrueView images. The coins were already graded by PCGS but...
I believe they were.
They found a LOT of coins in that wreck. The East India Company cash coins are quite common, and thus not extremely valuable, but they’re fun, as...
Finished this out with a large sized Bust quarter and a silver proof Bicentennial. It’s going off to @Randy Abercrombie now. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I agree with this as well. Nothin’ wrong with ‘em.
True. It’s a good site for handcrafts and such. But Crazytown for coins, mostly. Lots of trash like this. There are a few real coin sellers...
I'll trade ya! ;)
Etsy is a wonderland. :rolleyes: (As in, gee, I wonder what he's been smokin'...) [IMG]
