She's a beauty. Shame about those nicks on the steps though. That really knocks it down in my book.
Made from spent shell casings, or so the story goes...
If it was a common date one from the 1900's maybe it'd bump it up from $1 to $5, but I'm not so sure on a 1863 if it'd add much to the price since...
Is it a magician's coin? Can you crack it open? Nice pictures by the way!

None at all. You see I have one of those "essential" jobs that I must go to everyday to keep the stay-at-home people supplied. I also have a...
It dies after 3 days on a surface. I have no concerns getting coins through the mail.
I’m not so sure about that. He was an engraver, not just a designer.
You must not have the same OCD tendencies that I suffer from. That is the exact coin I’m talking about, and it is not centered. It’s positioned...
