Before you add any further comments, I would like to remind that the tension between Korea and Japan is still bitter at best. Unless you are a...
Korea needs a wake up call and move on. It is stuck behind the times. I acknowledge that WWII has caused severe hardship and yet continue to...
It is 100% fake Siberian man!!! Coins were not very circular back then. Poor details and look at the eyes of the Empress! Looks sad!!!
Novodel is essentially a restrike but some modifications are allowed. This is neither. It's just a replica. I wouldn't pay a single cent for it.
How does a mint overstrike mintmark? My understanding of overstrike is an old coin is used as a planchet and struck as a fresh coin.
I'm not a gold person but this eagle spoke out to me. Didn't really think too much about it when I bought it and am doing some research. No...
China numismatics in the 1910s - 1930s are very complicated due to various historical events. In this case, I will only focus in one area....

No such coin exist. 100% fantasy. I'll avoid sellers like him / her.
I don't blame them. Japan post has changed their shipping policy so it has to be shipped by DHL or those premium express service. Bite the...
Just thought I'll compile the $2 coins that I pulled from circulation. I forgot to take photos of the 2016 decimal coinage and 2019 invitus games....

Been doing some research - this does seem to be a rather uncommon coin. There is an example that shows that this is overstruck...
I'm sure it will be hoarded. The coloured $2 coin is a good example. Mintage is very low at around 2 million. In total more than 10+ million have...
