Yes indeed. I have one each of the 1964 through 1967 pennies in copper nickel and a florin struck on I think on a Hong Kong minor.
Mine graded MS67 at NGC, and frankly a fair grade - if that matters. I really wish I had gotten the dated 1952 half crown penny with design as Rob's!
Wow, that looks to be mainly iron as well and would imagine with marked magnetic attraction. I wonder if it is the same alloy? I really thought...
Coin looks copper nickel, I did not weigh it, but it is magnetic. I am not that familiar with iron or steel coins but I still question it. It is...
For interest of readers. Some 3-4 years ago or so I bought this coin at an UK auction, and did not record the provenance and did not record the...
Ah, they are not the be-all and end-all despite what people think. If you like your coins, carry on. Both have reamed me many times....
OK, I think at least one member has the entire set and highly graded, but I love the design and have actually been there, or what used to be...
I recently came across and took pictures of these two sets of dies, which look remarkably well preserved. The gentleman also had some dies that...
Uh, I think he was pushed. Or maybe a bit worse..... Wasn't that the Cars: "Let the Good Times Roll"?
Yes indeed I agree. On this series the aesthetic appeal is I believe enhanced by a full libertad and the lovely graininess in the Caballito/horse...
Over the last couple of years, and I have been a bit late to the party, I have come to really like the Caballito pesos. Mercifully a rather short...
This coin grade also a shocker…..in hand it ducks all the caveats including hairlines - there are a few micro dust pits on the die and even a...

Yes, I agree it being nice. I won't say I have a lot of background but always like a challenge. Well, maybe I do have a lot of background as I...
Yes, in hand does support that. I am mystified by some of the grading - I have been collecting Victorian silver currency and proof for over 30...
Well, it was an ordinary "62". As I would likely one day resell it here, will likely have to try to get it regraded in hopes of a bigger sale...
Those [four letter words]. They will not ship until 3 January even though paid for by credit card. What the h--l? I bought it. If it is nicely...
Indeed my sentiments with regards to the latter.
It appears to have a somewhat porous surface with pitting and on the pre pictures showing corrosion in the lettering and hid in some of the...
Oh, Rob fountain of wizdom! Maybe you ought to write a book, seriously. My guess based on pictures alone is 64 but on a US coin of similar vintage...
