    Yeah. I used to accumulate US junk silver as part of my collection, but then I got into world junk silver a couple years ago and it is much more fun. Plus, one can often get such coins cheap.

    That's a nice stash of silver. Wish I could go to coin shops and shows like you guys in the states do, and cherry pick nice little odds and ends. I recognize most of those world silver coins, because I have identical or very similar examples here in my pile. Oh, might as well post another new coin...came 2 days ago. Not cheap, due to its relative rarity and the current popularity of Edward VII. Now if I could just find an '05 half crown at a good price... 1905 GB shilling obv.JPG 1905 GB shilling rev.JPG

    You mean like this one?

    I picked it up about 12 years ago - I can't remember how much I paid but it wont be much over £100.

    I bet that 50 franc was demonetized when they went to the euro. I do like the way US money stays spendable. Sure, some current youngster might balk at accepting a silver dollar or large cent, but if they are able to read they might realize it is money. 1875 A FR 5 f obv.JPG 1875 A FR 5 f rev.JPG
