I usually only think of coinarchives.com for ancients, but I'll give it a try for this too. Thanks, -Daniel
Group, One coin that I got a while back is very rubbed out so there is no intrinsic value, but it is still a bit of a puzzle for me to identify...
I think that it is a bamboo token or bamboo money. See http://www.anythinganywhere.com/commerce/exo/bamboo.htm I still need help with the other...
Well, here is more info that I have gotten back on these. First of all, I measured them. The tree coin/token is 16mm and the smallest coin is...
Hey, I got a reply from one of my other lists. They said that it is bamboo money. Never heard of it before, but I googled it. Ya' learn something...
Well, the other side of most of these has been worn out. I would like to provide sizes at least (I have no scale for weights), but that will have...
Help with some...coins? Ok group, I hope this is a challenge for you. I just got a nice batch of coins yesterday and these are beyond me. They...
Ruben, Interesting that you chose the Hendin 496 (Herod) coin to compare it to. That one clearly is a palm whereas fastfun's coin has a menorah (a...
It did not look authentic to me as well, but I did not want to condemn it outright. That is why I was so circumspect. I am sorry. It is hard (for...
Well, again, if it is authentic, then I usually see them sell for about $300-$400 in this condition. I have a shekel and half shekel but not in...
Well, that would be a shekel of Tyre or half shekel depending on the size and weight. The shekel or tetradrachm is about 14 grams and 28mm and the...
Avi, One thing that you want to be certain about when you buy coin holders of any kind is that they do not contain PVC. When the PVC breaks down...
Another coin from the same revolt that I love is the 1/8th shekel. As the revolt wore on, the belief is that silver became more scarce and they...
I have to say, it takes me hours as well. I just got 42 coins today and I worked on them for about 3 hours and I am not done yet - I probably have...
That is a problem that I have faced as well. I can't store them each in flips - there are just too many. It would take up too much space. Most...
Well, let's say, half that many. Again, it all depends on how you look at it. Time for another example: If you count German Empire, Weimar...
Nations in K&M That is a good question. I count about 250 nations but there are about another 250 nations under those major listings (in the 20th...
For a book, the accepted standard (as far as I know) is the Standard Catalog of World Coins by Krause and Mishler. There is basically a volume for...
Hey, let me know when you are ready for a swap! -Daniel
I was thinking recently that, although I don't necessarily have a lot of world coins (about 1300, not including US or dups) I try to collect coins...
