I know I'm responding to an old posting, but I have a question about the Gigante Italian coin catalogs. Does Gigante or any other publication in...
Too bad they never seem to include foreign coins in their specials.

Brazil and some other countries would re-strike their coin design over another countries' silver coins. I'm talking about the whole coin being...
I like that those old Cuban silver coins had their weight on them and the 90% purity.
