These are fun. I need to stock up on some more for my giveaway "free store". They're so chunky and impressive- and affordable. And the edge...
Thanks for the tip, though. Maybe I should keep my eyes open, after all. Y'know, I never did go looking for W-mint quarters, either.
I long ago lost track of the modern quarters. Calling myself a numismatist, I really should know more about them, but since I do not actively...
Those are supposed to be coins? "Heavily chopmarked"? Well, I'll say! They look more moth-eaten, with those giant, ragged holes in them. :rolleyes:
Stand by. It is 11:59 PM as I type this, and I said we'd do the drawing "after midnight", so the time draweth nigh. My computer is installing...
I had to go to my friend’s house to play Atari. He had the Asteroids cartridge. I didn’t have any of that. I did, however, have an impressive...
Little known fact: a few of the Roman emperors and usurpers were descended from giraffes.

I'd call that a textbook example of a woodie.
No, a button would have the mount in the center. And a four-reales coin would have been rather large for a button anyway. A pinback mount, on...
@katieivie - welcome to CoinTalk. For others to help you, you will of course need to upload photos. Here's a thread on how to do that. Also,...
I briefly thought about doing the Round 3 drawing now, since I'm here and have the time for it, but on second thought, since the round opened...
@Abramthegreat - your Round 2 winnings are in the mailbox to go out on Monday the 9th. Sorry for the delay- I was temporarily unable to access...
Good heavens, how much time do you have? It could take me days, and an entire thread, to recount my past "seller's remorse" coins. In 48 years,...
Over six pounds, huh? That's still a box o' bricks. Coincidence, though. The 6+ pound package I shipped out for Secret Santa was not to you....
