I've been almost exclusively into world coins for the last ten years or so, but I was wondering what it would cost to get a U.S. half cent. Is...
Here's what I have. Mostly older. I don't know what they use today. Possibly the West African coinage that covers several nations. [ATTACH]...
I got binders at garage sales and Goodwill. I have trouble believing a binder is going to ruin your coins.
It depends how you ship it. If I was sending a five pound coin to the UK I'd use a $1.45 international stamp in an envelope. But there's no...
Earlier this year my son and I did some roll searching and we found two of them. I was really surprised. I think they were both in the 30s though.
That's interesting. I haven't noticed this but I don't buy a lot anymore.
I found out recently that eBay includes the sales tax collected when calculating selling fees. So even though I never see that money, I pay a fee...
As he said, it's a state thing. Each state decides whether coins are taxable. I sell coins on eBay and it shows up when the buyer pays tax or not...
I'm in for the Indian gold coin because I don't have anything like that.
I just received this 1852 10 reis from Madeira, a Portuguese island in the Atlantic. I was excited when I found out this exists because I have a...

You're right but I never would have figured that out.
This coin is oxidized and with the fancy lettering I just can't make out the name of the state. The date is 1920 and it says "Stadt ---" I have...
It's interesting to think how some things that were made in such large numbers might not have been saved. One of my favorite things to do with...
The only thing worse than envelopes to me is when people put coins in those long, narrow plastic sleeves that they fold up. I've spent way too...
Thanks! I'll have to look into that. It's weird about the letter differences though.
I'm sure someone is going to come right after me and say the exact opposite, but I'm pages all the way. I hate coins in boxes. How do you look at...
Here's a new one for my bear collection that just came today. It's ultra high relief and the bear really sticks up above the surface of the coin....
I was leaning that way too but you never know.
I don't know if it's a coin or just something coin-like but I got it in the world coin bin at the LCS. It's small and either aluminum or tin. It...
