10 roubles. 22.6 mm versus the 21.6 mm of a US half-eagle coin. 8.6 grams versus 8.3 grams for the US coin. So yeah, pretty close.
I think it's PMD (post-mint damage).
This is a giveaway on the Collectors Universe forums for a flashy ICG MS64 1922 Peace dollar. Details on that thread. Since I do most of my...
I need a Fugio. The only one I've ever owned was a $30 holed and corroded example. That looks like a nice AU coin to me. Weird how much I've...
I went 65
Yes, you'll likely get more responses in World Coins, though there's nothing wrong with posting these where you did in the general Coin Chat...

Keep 'em beepin', @paddyman98! I'm waiting for that first gold coin to pop out of the sod for you! Keep at it long enough, and I feel like it's...
Now, to address the topic in the title. What has been your most memorable numismatic experience? I’ve had a number of exciting adventures in my...
You do that, and take out your phone and show me this post to remind me, when we meet. It’s a free lunch voucher. On me. Even at the...
HHH. Secret ancient code. ;)
Hm. The story is too sketchy on details to be of any lasting interest to me. PS- the plastic prop coins in that screenshot are ridiculous....
It would be practically impossible NOT to- and I suspect it will remain that way for a very long time. Maybe for the remaining lifetime of this site.
Yeah, I reckon it looks more like pocket wear to me.
Good question, and I think it's certainly a relevant topic to the hobby. I don't see anything wrong in discussing tariffs in general. Maybe even...
