Featured What is a "CircCam", you ask? Look and see! And post yours!

Here is one of my favorites in my collection. 1923 Peru sol.

Beautiful coin, Jason! Welcome to CoinTalk!

 

Love those big old Peru silver coins! Here is a 1793 Aachen IIII heller.

 

Beautiful! That would be my number 1 coin in my collection.

 

Stunning coin, wow!

 

That bird hit a window!

 

Thanks! I had high hopes.

The seller photos (below) looked solid, but in-hand the surfaces have a lot more life to them than I was expecting. The obverse color is more glistening as opposed to the "burnt on" looking target toning circulated coins have sometimes if that makes sense.

 

I don't know how I missed seeing this- this is awesome!!

 

1840 India 1 rupee

 

1896 Canada One Cent

 

Posted this one on a separate thread a few months ago.

 

I saw this at an antique shop today and it made me think of you @lordmarcovan .
1878s trade dollar.

 

Got this today at a local pawn shop. The CircCam, tho not perfect, is what sold me. Well that, the details and the price.

 

They just don't make 'em like they used to. That quarter has a lot of character. I could see Abe Lincoln handling it, or Wild Bill Hickok. I wish these old coins could tell their stories of their travels. I don't care how much you paid, you got a good deal.

 

Thanks, I was thinking about a civil war soldier may have had it in his pocket. Thinking of doing all the 1853 coins.
