Why, interested in South African coins?

I have quite some circulated doubles...

btw, it's a "liberty"

I now realize many American countries (north/central/south) have liberty on their coinage.

Small interest right now. Mainly, I would like to know some of the more reputable dealers that many of the folks at Coinpeople use. Maybe we should have a link for that. Maybe we already do?
Trantor_3
nowadays, most of my coins come from CP members, in trades.

when ordering through ebay, I only go for relative inexpensive coins, I only bid on auctions with decent, clear and sharp pictures and I make sure the feedback of the seller is very high. If there is any negative feedback, I check that, using http://www.toolhaus.org/

Received the Terry Fox Coin Collector Card (now which drawer did I put that coin in) from the RCM. It is a nice coin holder, but it has holes for all of the 2005 Canadian coins. no I have to find the $2, 25 cent, 10 cent, 5 cent, and 1 cent coins to fill these holes+ biggrin.gif

I look for The Celator and Numismatist in the mails at the first of every month. Near the end of the month, I get a check from the ANA for my column.

I came home yesterday and found a 2005 German 10 Euro Albert Einstein commem in the mail. I had no idea it was coming. I love Coinpeople, they are so nice and too often generous.

Got my Romanian coins today. Very nice. Thanks banivechi for the contest and wonderful prize.

My PCGS MS69 2005 Silver Eagle came in today. It is placed in a 20th Anniversary holder. There is just one little knick in her arm that is hardly noticeable (I had to use a lens to see it). Probably what kept it from being a 70.

Good way to start my collection of MS69's smile.gif

Today was another good day. My coins I won off Corina came in. The 1801 coin is nice for its age wink.gif

The mailman was pretty good to me today. Got a few numismatic items and my brand new FL driver's license. It's the high security design.

I'll try a quick post of the two main items from today's mail.

These don't appear to have a rim and look to me to be a little concave, are they? If so do they stack?

They're neat looking coins.

I also would like to share a couple of coins that were sent to me by another CoinPeople member.
This member sent me a PM stating that he had a couple of extras that he wanted to give me at his expense and with no strings attached.
This is just my humble opinion, but doesn't that convey the very best that our hobby has to offer?
I can't thank this fellow hobbiest enough, and I want him to know that one good turn deserves another. wink.gif
