Winner at the annual Texas State Fair Fried food contest? Looks better than fried butter was last year!
[ATTACH] This is a poem my son wrote. He was asked to write a poem about the person he loves the most. Guess I won. My wife is a bit annoyed, she...
That's a really good looking sight. Thanks. I don't "collect" Polish coins, but I have quite a few that have wound up in my collection. BTW the...
[ATTACH][ATTACH] Oh no.....even though my Krause shows some of the mint marks, it definitely does not show all of them. Anyone know what this mint is?
Thanks, I was looking in an older paper copy of Krause that did not show them. My newest electronic copy does show them. Yikes, how could I miss that!
Is there any source in which we can see the early French mintmarks? For example, the Bordeaux mint used the "temple" mark from 1781-1789 but I...
I keep a very detailed list of my collection. If I get a coin in a weird way, I record it. Coins I got when visiting Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea,...
I am a huge fan of British colonials, always have been. I've got sets of predecimal Fiji and Seychelles (a really hard one to complete). I've got...
As a life time history buff that happened to stumble on coins at an early age, this is soooo simple, I want to know what my coins have been used...
I have a rather extensive world collection. I mean REALLY big. I came across a Dansco Mexico Type Album recently and I found I had quite a few...
I see why Krause doesn't list them! Yikes, given that description I'm almost sorry to have found the "coin". I love a good coin mystery, but when...
Thank you. Got the Afghan one and the Hyderabad one. Simple!!! Just like I thought they should be. I don't think the Chinese one is a fantasy...
[ATTACH][ATTACH] These three are bugging me because they shouldn't be hard. The Ottoman coin seems to have nothing for me to work with. I think I...
I just found that Dansco (#7220) on ebay. I spent about $50 for the album with a few okay coins in it. I found I had an awful lot of the coins...
I used to have to buy rolls of coins for work back when I was a poor student (out on Long Island). I'd be buying $500 of coins with my money and...
Looks like an Arabic 5, is it middle eastern/North African?
I love OFEC collecting. I've got so many, I'm not even sure at the moment. I just got a new one yesterday, Faeroe Islands. Definitely not fancy,...
The first "coin" has a date of 1870 but is very well struck. It is 14 1/2 mm. I have a bunch of Apothecary weights and this just doesn't feel like...
I decided to purge my US stuff that is either duplicates or stuff I don't really collect. My ebay name is jays-dad. I've put up lots of proof...
[ATTACH][ATTACH] The first one I have posted before, but I'm still stumped. The last three are new. The second, a cob? The fourth, Byzantine?
