FS: modern Canadian coins and sets - 1 new
------------------------------------------
I've purchased a number of collections in the past month or two, and have
accumulated a Way Too Big Pile of Modern Canadian for my normal inventory
needs. With Christmas approaching (and no show on my schedule until the end of
January ...), I thought that maybe some r.c.c'ers might want to pick up some
of these for - Fri, Dec 5 2008 1:02 am

2010: The End of the Cent? - 1 new
----------------------------------
Hey, I was talking with Daniel Carr (the creator of U.S. $1 and $2 coin
prototypes) about my coin and currency issues, and here's what he had to say:
He feels that there is a 50/50 chance that there will be NO one cent coins
issued after 2009, as there has been no disussion for what to do with the cent,
in terms of design, for 2010 and beyond. - Fri, Dec 5 2008 3:43 am

...Checking headers just shows (surprise!) a prodigy/AT&T dialup account,
which is effectively untraceable without a court order. That said, checking
feedback at eBay finds the described transaction fairly easily. The seller was
njrarecoins, and this was, in fact, his only negative in 12 months. - Fri, Dec

...I apologize for not supplying the transitional paragraphs. The dealer in
question sets up at flea markets, trade fairs, emporia and such, never at
numismatic conventions, though he does make some local coin shows. He has been
in several businesses since leaving military service after the Korean War and
has been a coin dealer only since - Fri, Dec 5 2008 6:27 am

Proposed Mint Medals - 2 new
----------------------------
Looking with curiosity at the design proposals shown in coin newspapers for
some of the upcoming US Mint medals, it makes me nostalgic for the earlier
days of classic sculptors and medalists. These proposed designs apparently are
what we must expect when we encourage artists to "modernize" our coin and
medal designs. They remind me more of the type of results we - Fri, Dec 5 2008

I recently looked through some old stuff of a relatives and came across an old
coin collection. One coin is described as follows. Heavy gold/brass. About the
size of a 50cent piece. The front has the lion's crest on it, with the
initials F I S G V R. On the back is 2 OR s M and the year 1746 with a crown
