As always enjoy the eye candy that you share. This time it was the Gothic florin that stood out for me. I’ve had one of those on my bucket list...
I’m not a counterfeit specialist, but that looks like it came off a rusty die (or casting mold) at the Beijing Mint.
Interesting that notes from multiple states as well as Continentals were all printed by Hall and Sellers.
The Nazis really were boring when it comes to coins. Even with the later aluminum issues they could have put them to use in propaganda.
Here is my rarest aluminum coin. It is the scarcer aluminum-magnesium variety, made in the Lodz ghetto from scrap aircraft metal. [ATTACH]
My first thought was somewhere in the VF range. It’s definitely way above junk. That series took a major beating in circulation.
Did you buy the Egyptian tetradrachm? From what I can see that looks really nice!
I was thinking PCGS 66 or even 67, so I’m not surprised it’s a CAC 66. Eye appeal is off the charts.

I have done hundreds of transactions on eBay, GC, HA etc. and had never had a package lost by USPS. When receiving items worth more than a couple...
I wouldn’t use the word “only” when describing any straight grade G4 or above for that series. Those coins took a serious beating.

VF details environmental damage. A lot of detail remaining but surfaces are rough.
I like how it looks. Your photos make the surfaces look more natural. It’s better to have a smooth heavily worn one than a lightly worn corroded...
Yeah, I find that surprising. It would depend if the damage extends into the rim. If it is not a normal bump from circulation but was done...
