It's a Dutch East India Company copper duit. Lots of history, but minimal value...maybe $5 - $6 in that condition. Still, a cool coin/token! :smile
Ha, well, I like that price range better. Expect photos in just a few hours. I'm excited to see exactly what I have, even if it turns out to be...
Thanks for the info! I will go ahead and post pictures tonight so that I can get a more positive ID plus some grading opinions. I'm pretty...
Just Coin World right now. It's a little too heavy on U.S. coins (modern U.S. coins in particular), so I might end up subscribing to that new...
Hello all, I need some help today with a Japanese coin I purchased a while back (hontonai, I'm guessing you'll be the most help here). I purchased...
Simply amazing. I'm speechless. Actually, I'm LMAO, ha.
At the very least, I certainly wouldn't sell it for a mere $300. Hopefully you'll be able to submit it to a TPG soon, and we can hear how this...
This is true, it would would be very difficult to ascertain what's copper and what's copper-plated without using a sorting machine. I'm...

When I saw the title of this thread, the Canadian Devil's Hair notes immediately came to mine. I hope to cherry pick one some day. We'll see...
I agree that it's a Class B anonymous follis. I was just cataloging my Class A anonymous follis last night, actually. For $6, I think you did...
Sell them to who? Since it's illegal to melt them, who would buy them if there's nothing they can legally do with them except spend them or save...
Hmm, not sure how you'd even out the color on that, especially since it's a nickel three-cent piece and not a silver one.
True, but until we're legally allowed to melt them, there's not much you can do except hoard them and hope the ban is lifted one day in the future.
I don't think the teller did anything wrong, but they sure got screwed by the dealer.
Ha, I would like to see one of these puppies up close, though.
Lucky...I'd wait a bit 'til silver climbs up some more, sell them, and buy some gold!
Meant to post this last night, but it looks legit to me. Zinc cents become extremely dark and rusty with use, so this is certainly not a...
TRT2, PM me your e-mail address, and I'll send you the spreadsheet I just started for my collection. To boot, I've got separate tabs for my U.S....
