The problem is, no matter what they chnage it to, it will still be crap. It is the coining/design techniques - not so much the designs themselves...
What are these "hole" coins. Normal German design with a hole? Yes....Vienna was Germany at one point.......and from what I learned here,...
For better or worse, I know that is true. Even more so, Munich is not Bavaria, I am told. It has been a great 5 years, but for various...
I agree – I think it is a Civil War Token, a “Patriotic“ version (patriotic theme, as opposed to a “Storecard“, which would be an advertisement...
Well, my office is one of the corner of Stiglmeierplatz, so Amerikahaus is about as far as I am from Königsplatz but on the other side of it....
At least at one time, they sold for several dollars less than comparable coins, for political reasons. Probably is a slight disount on both sides...
Well, I sent in an "order" (more like a futile pipedream) for 2 Mint sets and two proof sets. I will be lucky if I get nothing. If I am unlucky,...

No, I buy it every year, regardelss, just to have a complete collection. If I miss one year, that one seems to be the one that shoots up in...
But....pure gold is so soft that sliding it around in a container will wear some away. Airtites are OK, of course. Pure gold also scratches...
Hey....that reminds me. I have not recd an order form for the last year or two. I guess if you skip a year you are dropped. Then again, I am...
In the old days, just had to look for obvious damage (a very rare smudge or print, etc.). Now, I guess some die cracks are showing up. I...
