I was lucky to notice it because I don't look for this stuff. I had been thinking that my 3-year-old son might want to collect pennies someday and...
Thanks! I've never seen this before. Are they desirable?
I was looking at some coins before taking my change to the bank and I noticed this one looked odd. Not being an expert or even novice in errors or...
Here's my last post of the night, all the stuff that doesn't fit into the other categories. 1680 Ireland half penny featuring King Charles II....
With silver at $50 an ounce I really try to only buy small silver coins but sometimes you see something that just doesn't come along too often and...
I used to mostly ignore tokens and medals but lately I've been paying more attention. There is some interesting and sometimes valuable stuff out...
I previewed this a bit on another thread, but I picked up a bunch of older Italian coins on my recent LCS visit, some of which seem pretty rare....
Thanks! I don't have a copy of the 18th century Krause to check. Looks like a good score!
Thanks! I didn't realize the site was crowd sourced but that explains it, along with the alternate denomination. I've noticed like on the German...
Good idea but I don't see anything. Tuscany seems to be the right answer but I don't know why I can't find it in a good reference.
That's it but it doesn't say what country exactly it's from (there was no Italy then.) Plus why can't I find it on the major sites like Numista?

I just picked up this Spanish 40 centimes yesterday. [ATTACH]
I agree. These odd denominations are fun. Panama has 1 1/4 centesimos. Venezuela has 12 1/2 centesimos. El Salvador 3 centavos. 2 1/2 cents in a...
I don't seem to have a GEA half rupee. Here are some other coins from there that I do have though. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
The age of exploration and colonization is one of my main areas of interest too. I didn't realize the coin you posted was issued in 1897 as I have...
Back when I was trying to complete full date sets, Ireland was one of my first targets because it's actually pretty manageable. Most dates between...
Very good condition considering most of the older Jamaican coins I see look like they were heavily used and abused and maybe left out in the...
I think you got it. It's a lot older than the ones I usually find. Thanks!
I checked my usual sources for China, Japan and Korea and I don't see this in any of them. Either I overlooked it or it's older than what I...
