I'm not trying to set myself up as an expert by any means, but just as someone who reads the news it seems like a lot of weaknesses of a common...
With what has happened economically in the eurozone recently I don't understand why any other countries would want to join. To me it looks like a...
I'm no Chinese coin expert but I'd say there's almost no chance that's a coin. It just doesn't look like it. Some sort of other token I think.
Thanks for the help. That explains why I couldn't find it. It's got those big green spots on it but I bought it anyway because I'd never seen...
I need help identifying this coin. I looked under Japan in Krause and didn't see any matches. I read a year of 26, but I don't know which country...

I don't know the reason but I've noticed the same thing, even with non-silver coins. East Africa, West Africa and South Africa all seem to go for...
I collect Mexican coins but the varieties don't interest me. I just want one of each date and don't care about the varieties. Today I purchased...
There's a user here named Jblonde who can probably help you, but he hasn't been by a lot lately. He knows a lot about Mexican coins.
This Canadian dollar also marks the anniversary of the end of World War II.
If I can introduce a few modern issues into this ancient party, here's three Australian coins celebrating the end of World War II.
It's all a matter of perspective. Below $5 is where I live in coin buying. My standard eBay search is set for $5 or less, and to me it matters a...
The weird thing is that "Manila" is spelled with one "l" normally, but that one has two.
This one has a mintage of 750,000 which for world coins is not that small. Maybe they just don't come up for sale. I'm not familiar with the...
