Poland was a part of russian empire during those days.

Of course, but in catalogues that coin is listed at Poland.
Markkas with tzar's eagle are Russian coins? I guess not!
Anyway I am curious if the silver was Russian...

I was right! 1942-S ANACS VF-35 Walker half. Very nice coin with the most luster I've ever seen on a Walker in this grade. Well worth the, basically, pocket change I paid for it.

Sounds nice, I like those mid grade Walkers. Gotta pic?

Banknotes today:





+ 1000 Mark 1910 and 100 Mark 1918-1922 from Germany.

Sadly no. Scanner is at my parent's and with the camera here I am having trouble with glare and blurry pictures.

Nothing for me

Well, not actually russian, but still from the russian empire.

Think about the HUGE post Tiff is gonna make here once she picks up her mail from the last 10 days.

make that posts.....

can post only 10 images at a time...

A pretty nice Washington Carver half dollar for my type set. From Ebay, no less!

Was that smart. I understand its sold out so you might just get your money back.

i'm not worried about that. it was, effectively, defective, and i paid full price for a coin in uncirculated condition. they're still minting and shipping coins (people have received postcards telling them to expect their coin in november!) so i'm not too worried.

Today was one of those "good" days. I received my two Marine Commems, 4 rolls of the Kansas buffalo quarters, and the American Legacy Collection of coins all from the Mint, and a 1992 slabbed American Eagle.

hmm, the Kansas buffalo is out in the wild????

Ok, well...

You mean mr. Paasikivi? He really was not that ugly.

No he was not, but his face on the coin sure was!

It's not "ugly", but "artistic"

Hmmmm..."artistic license"?

Got back from a great vacation on the Dutch (actually Zeeuws) North Sea. We had mostly gorgeous weather, except for the last two days. (But I like it that way - makes getting back to "real life" easier, hehe.) And I have mail from some great Coin People here. Auction coins from Anton and Tiff, and a neat package from Sir Sisu. Thank you all!

(And now, back to unpacking and doing the laundry.)

Christian

Lets see... yesterday I recieved an awesome coin package from Sir Sisu. Contest winnings PLUS a 2002 Italy Euro 8 Circ coin set!

I also recieved some stuff from my Ebay spree.

-Bobby

No bills!

Received a nice little 1914D cent from LostDutchman today. Very nice coin.

3 shipments, a huge amount of coins :

- 1776-1976 Dollar, Half Dollar and quarter set, won in the Katrina Relief auctions
- nice extra that came along with the Bicent set


- 1966 uno centissimo from Panama


- large lot of South African coins, from my friend there

Got nothing today. Niente. Nichts. Nada. Oh wait, today is our national holiday in Germany ;-)

Christian

Got an IHC from Ebay.

-Bobby

Got this on Saturday...

1857 FEC

Customs/Tax bill for $20

After I paid that, I got the IHC from the Katrina auctions

Cable bill. For some reason they only charged us 1/2 the amount.

I'm not complaining

I got a real nice ANACS Walking Liberty DDR 1946-P VF-30 off of ebay for around $30.00.

All I got was a US Mint Catalog.

It was like Christmas here! Katrina Auction packages came in!

I got my IHC stamps, a bronze ancient and a Canadian Dime from ccg. A gourgeous '41 Washington Quarter from 28_Plain, and a mint set and some great silver Roosies and Franklins from the Bunny!

What a great coin day!

Oh oh oh!!!!!

My German coins from Bill came in! 98 various denoms (some very nice Marks) along with a 1951 2 Mark in VF+ condition. I'll post pictures if I ever figure out how to take good pictures.

Very nice coins.

Also had a slip for a package at the post office. Wonder what that could be?

I got this:
1804 Distribution of the Eagles

Three days after his coronation Napoleon personally handed out the Eagles carried by his Army into battle. The medal is very common, this is my third. Sorry about the scans but my camera is in the shop.

Neat! That is actually the only year for the grapes type 2 DM coin. (People found it to be too close to the 1 DM piece, size and design wise, so after a few years it was replaced by another type.) Not exactly rare but still worth more than the "mass pieces" that came out later ...

Christian

Just picked up from post office a neat 1898 romanian token (tobacco factory)
