As a long time full & part time dealer, I've appraised quite a few US & world collections, either for purchase, on a hourly rate or as a favor for...
Here are 3 more. #1 is Louis XIIII of France but no date or denomination. #2 Spanish for sure (16th-17th Century my guess) but no...
Milesofwho, thanks for the help! I'll post a few more puzzlers on anther thread here.
All of us have a few oddballs we haven't been able to identify. I picked out about a dozen of mine and will post them here a few at a time. Any...
"B" or Bahia Mint coins of this type seem to be a bit more weakly struck than the "R" or Rio de Janiero ones. If you look at the bottom bar of...
A nice "as struck" AU/Unc. piece with original toning. All of these types were struck over other crown-sized silver coins. This one was...
Here's a nice example of what "bag toning" looks like! Obverse is a bright MS60, reverse grades higher with beautiful original toning. This coin...
Nice EF example.
Nice examples of these key dates. Not as tough as their 1948 cousins but still pretty hard to find. Paid a little less than $50 for the pair a...
Here's one I have that I'd grade AU. By the photos you posted, I don't believe either coin is Unc. Cleaning, I'm not sure, same with...
1 Pfenning,2 Pfenning and 10 Pfenning 1894 purchased in a big world coin lot in Springfield, MO when my wife & I were on a road trip in the early...
A really nice example of this type, EF+. The photo doesn't bring out the nice underlying luster around the legends on obverse & reverse. Stole...
Sine I rarely ever bought or sold any world coins pre 1700, I don't have a Krause world coin catalog covering the 1600-1700 period. I have two in...
Nice example of this type. The overdate is just a guess as what might be a 7 appears to the right and slightly above the last 8 of date....
Don't have a clue about what the "D" and 4 difference could be, but I think C-B-D may be on the right track. One thing I WOULD do-take the coin...
The Canon model is Power Shot SD1100 IS, 8 megapixel capacity. She probably bought this 8-9 years ago so it's an oldie. Thanks for the tips so...
I'm new to the board and am clueless about photo techniques for coins, although I've posted a few. I've had my wife do the photos for me, as she...
Pretty dramatic double strike on this oldie!
Nice north/south doubled mintmark. About 50% of second D visible.
Stay in stocks by all means! I'm pretty impressed that you have a nice start in building a stock portfolio at your age. If I were you I would do...
