I'm in this situation where the hole is a bit too big for the coin. The coin would rattle and this annoyed me. The only solution that I could...
When the error is "roated"...
Thought this is hilarious...
I wonder if it's due to a larger influx of counterfeits so they might want more time investigating. There was a time when a huge influx of high...
Nice coins Stork! Japan has very low rates of error coins. I have seen some interesting error coins such as brockage, off center, die rotation....
If genuine, it's easily a 3 figure coin. 4 dollars is still too much for a replica.

Why does the reverse look kinda off? Some of the super counterfeits that I've seen are in similar low grade condition even though they may be...

The era of attempting to circulate precious metal coin should be thrown out of the window. There is a good reason why the Chinese used to...

There is a reason why the mintage figures are so low - there's simply little demand for them! As such, some of the later year coins are almost...
Not genuine. Details are just wrong.
I do have a couple of fiber coins in both red and brown. The way I see it is it's similar to how coins oxidize to air. It could also be a case...
This thread reminds me to update photos of my collection... While Krause reckons these coins can be easily achievable, I can assure you that...
Is the weight around the same as what a normal coin would be? To me it looks like it has been copper washed. It does not look bronze to me.
To me, it does seem like there are signs of this coin being cleaned. At the same time, Imperial Korean coin prices seem to be rising at a steady...
