I love the note and the write up. As for the death penalty on it, that was not unusual at the time. This Pennsylvania note also warns the...
Thanks for the information!
Very nice! Love the write-up. My only Sasanian. Not nearly so nice as yours, and not really sure of full ID, but here it is: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I, too, like the coin and the eye appeal, but comparing it to the PCGS photograde, I'd have to say VF-25, maybe 30 on a really good day. For...

I don't think my 1984 edition starts with the same date for every country. The earliest French issues are 1770s, while in the United States...
If you're happy with it, then it was a great swap! They are all very nice coins.
I still have mine (10th edition, 1984) and use it from time to time. It was old and out of date when a coin dealer friend down in Mobile,...
VG 10. The eagle looks way worn, but I think it is from a poor strike. If it were all wear, I would think the lettering would be less clear....

I know nothing about these, but it sure looks like this one from Conrad, King, Genoa, on Numista: Denier (Class D) - Republic of Genoa (1139-1797)...
Here's my only Duit. Numista says it was minted 1840-43, but they don't say by whom. Any ideas who and why it would be minted if the VOC had been...
Wow! Looks like somebody spent Granpa's coin collection!
I may just be wishing I had one like it, but I went XF45. It lacks luster, but the over-all effect is very nice.
Perhaps Rick is speaking of the oval shaped hole just to the left of the bell's crack. That could be a minor strike through or just a dent. I...
This thirty shillings note is Issued by Pensilvania:[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I've posted this one before, which I bought for $10 in 1963, which means...
That one is worth more than any crisp 70 PPQ! Love it!
The first issues even had postage stamps printed on them, and they were called Postage Currency. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Very nice! I really like all the fractionals, but especially the odd denominations. Your 15 cent note is much better than mine! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
