If you click the link in my sig line, there are a number of my dig stories accessible from that index, though the list there is not yet complete....
That sounds equally plausible to me. And interesting.
Can't have been very fun for his fellow passengers to watch. Of course such tragedies would've been a little more routine (well, not routine, but...
I get a little bogged down in minutiae at times... ;)
I agree with @dwhiz. Guess I lean towards MS63 RD. Not a bad looking coin. Looks like it could be a full RD, though if the reverse is muted...
Mildly interesting, perhaps, but I think I overdid it a tad with the spreadsheets. Haha. I've still got those folders, though. Maybe I should...
Nice article as usual, WB2.
Oops- I was mistaken. It's been longer than that- more than five years- since I last coin-roll hunted. And it was a 1929 Buff. I did find a...

Like you, I remember seeing these for the first time in roll hunting finds when I was a kid (in Florida, we were pretty far removed from Canada,...
That was relatively painless. I actually had to go back to Collectors Universe for a little while, which made me all the more grateful to come...
Yeah, his mother would be pretty ancient if the pennies on her scale were those big fat Cartwheels! LOL Speaking of which, I might have a slick...
I see what you mean, though at first blush I would've thought, "Hey, World Coins are such a vast category that surely that would mean more...
Yes. Though much has been made of the fact that NGC Ancients does not guarantee authenticity, I do find them a useful "screen" and second...
Oh. I too failed to fully read and thought the coin pictured was the prize. No matter- those are ALL nice... and silver! Sweet prize.
PS- I hadn't thought of a prize aspect, though. Great Armenian coin! Noah's Ark?
