Coins in general may not be a part of commerce by the end of this century. Maybe even by the end of another decade or two. Of course, the old...
Nobody's even come close to guessing the Ancient Newp. Though there's a hint that's been repeated several times now. ;) Seems quite blatant to...
I liked the coin a lot, of course, but in terms of sentimental appeal versus monetary investment, it might not have even been in my top five...
@Santinidollar - thanks. I can't claim to be a font of knowledge compared with some here, but in 40 years of collecting, I have covered a lot of...
Yes, neat coin, and an interesting historical character. As you probably knew, they also named a rather handsome fish after him.
Interesting correction by @chrisild. I did not know that, and would have accepted the "William Tell" description (I've heard it before, more than...
Yep. PCGS mechanical error. It's an S-mint. That happens. Rather an ugly-ish coin due to the obverse deposits. Pass. The reverse ain't bad,...

Neat! I always get "sensory overload" in such museums, though. As to Julius Caesar lifetime denarii, here's the one I had in my old Twelve...
I wish! Well, there IS that one I posted a while ago... ;)
Dang, should've made a poll. LOL I'll wait, but y'all are welcome to guess, and if somebody gets close enough, maybe I'll tip my hand. ;)
Farewell, 1842-D half eagle. I've enjoyed having you in the Box of 20. This, my most valuable coin (by a factor of more than 2x), is being...
I've got a what I consider to be very sweeeet ancient coming soon. (@Aethelred has had a sneak peek and approves.) I have committed to buy it,...
As you can perhaps see from my collection and sig line, I sorta "like it all". Primarily I'm into older World & Ancient coins (the "Dark Side"!)...
Hey, Canuck Dude... that's a stunner! *applause*
