US love token on 1837 Canadian token. Likely a christening gift. Note "FIFTY-FOUR" (1854) birthdate. This is an as-yet-unresearched new...
WAIT!!! LET ME GET PIX OF MY CANADIAN TOKENS!!! LOL
I predict you'll come out smelling like a rose on this one. Nice pix. Shoot me a link when it's on eBay and I'll start the bidding if you go the...
I pay someone else to photograph them, or buy them from someone who already took nice photos, that's how. ;) Ugh- I feel your pain- shooting a...
The game has changed too fast for me a few times and I've had to scrap my posts!
Canada, 1859 [IMG]
Doesn't that Prussian goldie say "1903" on it? ;) Still a valid play on Germany, of course. So I guess we're at 1903 or Germany... and I am...
"Mad Chicken skills" LOL. Love it!
The pictures here were only adequate; not fantastic. I was gonna crack this one out and send it to PCGS for Trueview images. In so doing, I was...
We have three dogs and (currently) six cats. Sweet Dixie the Border Collie mix is aging and has hip dysplasia. She won't get surgery. Nor did...
They weren't my images, technically, but rather the past owner's. If I had made them personally, they'd be worse. ;) I forget who I bought the...
PS- FWIW, I sold it to a dealer who specializes in crimes, though I took a hit on the price. Edit: ROFL!!! THANKS, AUTOCORRECT!!! :banghead: I...
Sorry. 'Fraid that's all I've got. This coin, like the others in my recent flurry of "GtG" polls, is a "bygone" - I sold it a year or two ago.
I think @Julius Germanicus' example looks great, patina and all. This was my best Gallienus, with full, bright silvering and some pale orange...
Good point, but I don't think it looks bad in LaCointessa's OP example, if that is in fact silvered (it's hard to tell from the photos?) But...
Very cool, as was @daveydempsey's "whopper copper" with the nice contrasting toning. I played my holey 1842 Russian rouble and don't think I have...
If you can find someone with the initials "JB" born on October 16, 1951, so much the better! It's a long shot, though. Even longer odds than the...
Sadly, I lost the picture, but my oldest was a 1934 $5 note found in the till at work around 2008-09.
PPS- I just looked at my old collection and it seems my first (maybe only) campgate was this Constantine I. Probably common as dirt, but it was...
PS- it looks like the coin he sent you also has some traces of the original silvering? That's always nice. A big plus.
