Beautiful. Aside from the testoon of Henry 8th, I think this is the earliest shilling one can get? I've never seen one in such nice shape as...
The Zepplin 5 marks is in really nice condition. I hate to give a grade from just a pix but it could be around 65. A key item are the lines on...
Very interesting and possibly a unique find. The book photo isn't too useful as was customary for those times.
Very nice 1861 2&1/2D. Plus it's a No Motto variety!* I only have one of these a quite worn 1846 P or O $10 Lib. I have attempted to buy...
I gather you don't want your grandfather to give you gifts?
Well if it had been me I would've just looked for a Mexican Revolutionary Parral Peso of Poncho Villa and forgotten the girls... Back on the .720...

So this is your specimen? Nice find if so. I'm not sure why they'd issue a florin in gold.
I don't know. I could be conservative but it appears to have too much luster breaks on the cheek for those grades.
Very clean but a touch of friction on the cheek. Traditionally with small denomination Barbers that meant AU-58. But a really nice clean one...
I tend to have bought often lower grade coinage and the prices haven't gone up nearly as much recently. I must admit that I don't follow Mughal...
Congrats on the Hookneck! This is a very important coin, being the 1st design of the Mexican Republic. Hooknecks are extremely desirable & I...
