I wanted to post a link to this coin just to get some comments on it, but since I'm selling it on ebay I decided I really needed the "FA" in the title. http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQgotopageZ1QQsassZrfthomps I bought this coin in a lot of five a few years ago. It was the highest grade in the lot,...

I'm trying to get out of google to post to this newsgroup. I'm searching around and with a new one I'm trying it says "480 authentication required for command" before I can get the newsgroup. What exactly does that mean (in laymans terms)?. Does it mean I have to pay?

We have just found in a charity collection box a silver 2p coin - I have never come across any of these before. One side gives the Prince of Wales' coat of arms, with the words 'New Pence' above, and a large 2 below. On the reverse side, it's an early profile of the Queen, with the year 1975 and...

I've been spending part of the last TWO YEARS buying supergrade coins on ebay...sometimes for peanuts. I religiously go to the bank, buying rolls, filching out the best examples and throwing back the dogs. I'M DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT but never managed to cash in on all the hoopla. Take a look at...

A few weeks ago it was a poster asking for pre-euro coins. Today I have received an offer from a dealer in Greece for 12 blisters from each EMU country with all the pre-euro coins and with a short informative card for each country. Of course it's a special edition and it's not cheep at all: every...

....was the comment made to me when I handed a clerk a keelboat nickel this afternoon. She said it looked Canadian or European. Waddya think, rcc? Ditz of the Week Award?

Well, not really... this would be more funny if it wasen't so pathetic. http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/news/113-11022004-393811.html

Yep! Coins are still king. Of course, I could use a Wisconsin quarter or two. The polling place where I voted this morning in Northern Virginia reminded me of a coin bourse floor during the heyday of the coin market. I've never seen so many people turning out to vote. I would guess there were...

Found on the floor of the MSU library - 1996 Jamaica 25 cent coin. Portrait of Marcus Garvey on the obverse and what looks like the country seal of Jamaica on the reverse. Copper or copper/zinc? Not sure. Anyway, it is approx. the same size and color of a Lincoln cent but a bit thicker.

I recently found a 1965 South African 5 cent coin. One side has a man's head with "South Africa 1965" on it. The other side has a bird and "5c" on it. I was wondering who the man is and what kind of bird is on this coin? Thanks, -- Edward Goldberg

I bought an 1882M British Sovereign (Victoria, young head) the other day and when I got home I was surprised to find that the obverse/reverse rotation was the same as US coins. Now, every British, Canadian, and Australian coin that I have ever seen were medallion rotation, the opposite of US coins....
