Exactly. Somewhere I have a nickel folder I was filling just from circulation finds. No buying stuff to fill the holes. Just stuff I found "in...
I just did that, in fact. Knowingly paid $40+ to slab a coin worth barely $3. I paid the same to slab another coin worth $7 in that submission....
I should add that I do keep all the pre-1960 Jeffersons I find in change, even though the late-'50s coins really aren't worth any premium in...
I really dunno about the steps. It's kind of a moot point, really. In all grades up to AU58 - in other words, every circulated grade (and this...
Great thread idea! :p Blockhead. The Lego Lady Livia? [IMG] [ATTACH] Ceres, as portrayed by Edward Gorey. [IMG] [ATTACH] Yikes....
Let's not start (or continue) flame wars here, pretty please.
It is an extremely common coin, and that one is only AU-ish, so no, it is not worth much more than face value monetarily, and as a result, it is...
It is probably well established by now that I love these. And though well-worn, I find that one very handsome, and quite appealing in its...
No Huns here, unfortunately! What were the other three? Can you sell them to offset your cost on the keeper you posted here? Or were they...
I see this one has the medieval 4. I like that.
Just really heavily worn. If straight-graded at PCGS at the PO01 grade, and not details-graded for damage, i.e., artificial wear (yes, that's a...
Well, I lost the bidding by 10 GBP. So this one is not destined to be mine. I am not heartbroken, though, and am already bidding on an earlier...
Good plan! Wow, what a coin. :greedy: BTW, in my earlier post I covered my most expensive Romans. This Greek coin is probably the most...
Wow, look how clear and relatively "modern" looking the date numerals are on that. And on the "Flandern" (Flanders?) coin above it, too. No...
Aha! Thank you for that explanation. So NC is nice to have, regardless of the change in meaning. (It also happens to be one of my favorite...
PS- This Juba II was in my watchlist in a recent auction. I could not afford to bid, so I was merely a spectator this time. It realized 320 GBP....
Oh! I've wanted a Juba Numidian for a while. Congrats! Nice portrait, and look how well the building sits squarely on the flan (except that...
Wow! Cool! An NC-4! Now, what the heck is an NC-4? LOL ;)
Spoiler alert: @spirityoda will be partnering again in the July giveaway. Maybe a little birdie told me that something like this might be up for...
Nahh, you're fine. You could put a CLOSED notice in the titles if you want, but I try to do that anyway, every once in a while. Hopefully a...
Separate names with a comma.
