I'm pretty sure Berman's work goes up to John Paul II, but you can find all the Benedict XVI issues in the "2000 to the present day" Krause...
Thanks for the suggestion of the Allan Berman book: I ordered a copy last week. This is a new project: I only have four or five decent Papal coins...
There's another rather suspicious private auction at...
I can understand how dealing with that many coins on paper could be problematic ! Due to my specialism, my note-book only lists 250 or so pieces,...
Minted in 84 BC. The figure on the reverse is Minerva, while that on the obverse is Vejovis (a representation of Jupiter/Jove ?) with a...

Probably cleaned, and certainly overgraded. Stay clear.
Nah, this coin is in nearly EF condition and the bottom dot is well struck up.
The last coin is a genuine 4 pice coin of the East India company, from 1794. However, it's unlikely to be worth anything in that condition, as it...
