Bermuda 1964 crown. It's a shame about the obverse, but the reverse is nice! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
World coins do open up a whole new world to discover. Unfortunately, they are not any cheaper than U.S. coins of equivalent scarcity! I hear that...
I have nearly a full set of mostly circulated WSQs, but I'm intimidated by all these high-quality examples. :)
ZH promotes a lot of misinformation, so this is not altogether surprising.
It's not too hard to figure out what the discount for a "raw" coin should be vis-a-vis a PCGS-graded coin. One way to do this would be to regress...
The PCGS and NGC price guides have the intermediate-grade values. You just have to click on the appropriate tab. See e.g....
Numista lists current French and Portuguese silver 10 Euro coins as circulating. These coins 1) are issued at face value, 2) contain silver, and...

Thanks... I prefer the obverse too. This was several multiples of melt, but still below what you'd expect for, say, a U.S. half of this grade &...
PCGS photo saps most of the luster, but here it is: [ATTACH] PCGS has two of this grade, none higher. NGC has one of this grade, none higher....
I was one of Paypal's first customers back in the '90s, but I'd be open to alternative payment systems that do the same thing with lower fees. All...

I always just bid my sincere maximum willingness to pay whenever I find the item, no sniping. So what if someone learns a little bit about my...
I guess what I'm doing is trying to grab coins below market value... Sometimes that can mean well above PM value (condition rarities); I try to...
