Neat. A Parthian coin is on my short-term "to do" list for additions to the Eclectic Box. I expect I'll be adding one by this summer, most...
I like it. I'll have to go to Wikipedia to discern how to draw the line between Ska and Reggae. Maybe start a Pandora channel or two to sample...
PS - now, after reading over the subsequent posts and seeing the hammer price, I am not surpised at all by the outcome.
I think it looks fantastic and if I had enough assurances of its authenticity, I'd go for it, tooling or not. This is just based on my very first...
I love those posters. Bought four of them as a celebratory gift for @Aethelred when he opened his shop for business. The story of Silbannicus...
Note to self - find a track or two of Ska music to listen to...
Wanna know what these remind me of? (Speaking of a lumpy collectible I would add to my "cabinet of curiosities" if I were an old style gentleman...
Aw, what the heck. Since I'm totally fine with competition (and win or lose would be equally OK in this situation), and I see no need for it to...
This one's my first time bidding in a FSR auction. All my bids except one have been shot down, and with mortgage payment and other bills looming,...
Therein lies the fly in the ointment, as far as I'm concerned. With documented find provenance, yeah, sure. Otherwise I'd bid or buy based on...
Sorry if it's rude to say so, but I have never understood the appeal of Æs rude. At least not at the prices they seem to go for. At <$15 or so,...
Ooh! Doily label holder! *wolf whistle* Nice coin AND sexy plastic, too! *applause* Didn't see that coming. It's bound to get the bean at...
I've done it myself. Forgotten to check the last pages of a thread to see the most recent post(s), typed a reply to the original post, and then...
Funny how this thread languished when I originally posted it nearly a year ago, but has seen so much activity since @SorenCoins resuscitated it...
Check the date of the original post. This contest is almost a year old, and ended a long time ago. I see you've entered my March 2018 giveaway...
Don't forget the FS096722rzđ☆€œ88762vĀŐŲČ28w22 variety, either! :p
I'll go 66.
Now you're talkin'! Face value, but fun! Since I've always been on the East coast, getting an S-mint coin in change was always fun.
I think I recognize "FS" as Fivaz-Stanton (?), but otherwise your attribution looks to me as though a cat walked across your keyboard.
I think it's at least 65, if not 66. Just a little while ago I had a similar experience with a 1913 T1 that I knew I just had to have, so I know...
Separate names with a comma.
