Agreed. I thought it but didn’t post it, because I presently no longer own one. But yes, in my opinion, the 1797 Cartwheel twopence is perhaps...
Side thought number two (more random musings): All this fuss and bother over those End of WW2 commemoratives is over a dinky little privy mark?...
FWIW, given my limited but not nonexistent experience, this coin looks OK to me on the authenticity front. Naturally I will defer to the more...
What a lovely example of an iconic type. A nice strike, round flan, and lovely cabinet toning. I’ll bet that even back in the 1980s that was not...
Yes. I’ve moved the thread. It should get more detailed replies here in the Ancients forum now. @GeorgeM - be prepared for people to ask you...
Nicely done, @Bradley Trotter. “Eastern European, late medieval” was all I was prepared to venture, since I had a hard time squinting at the...
Those are great!

We’ll let you slide on Rule 2 this once, since you just put up a giveaway of your own. ;)
You need to pick a number between 1 & 100 for the drawing, Cheech.
That was a very special hand engraved love token. If memory serves me correctly, I sold that one to our very own giveaway host, @dwhiz, a few...
There are tons of interesting coins of Great Britain from the 1700s. Here are just a few I've had. 1723 South Sea Company sixpence,...
Looks more like a clashed die than a strikethrough. You can kinda see Abe's ghostly outline on the reverse of the coin.
Note the "DB" designer's initials on the first coins of Tonga from 1967. Those are the initials of Dudley Moore Blakely (1902-1982), a skilled...
Separate names with a comma.
