I love odd facts like this!
@Croatian Coin Collector if you love gold coins, @panzerman is the king of gold world coins here in my opinion. Search some of his past posts and...
Neat. I like a lot of the FM Caribbean issues because they feature birds!
Here's a couple from a quick numista search. They're thalers, so likely quite expensive. It also pulled up a multitude of patterns. The issue...
I use the Krause German Coins 1600-present catalogue several times a week. It is always a starting point, but some coins aren't included or...
I'm no expert so I couldn't definitively say, but likely unless there is another similar issue. Just too much off about it to me.
My concern is the crosses where a date should be are not the same size, the middle one being noticed larger. Also between VINCES and IN the...

I use NGC for grading. I've owned ANACS and ICG slabbed coins as well. I think, until you get to the MS grades, both companies are essentially...
Aaah, it was a CuNi one. I guess I've never had a CuNi Indian.
It's very fun! I found out I can't grade Morgan's to save my life and I over grade gold. Ready way to spend a few idle minutes.....lol
Wow. There's another prolific seller in Portugal I buy from a few times a year and his shipping is less than $10. I don't understand that $1,000...
I've only seen them online. There was a spectacularly toned one I saw once, I think on Instagram. I'm sure it went for BIG money.

Those German new guinea pieces with the bird of paradise are beautiful!
