Well its that time of year that our interest change towards out doors activities and our focus on Summer holidays and travel. Well if you're in the Northern hemisphere...that iis... But no matter the season and our plans as a collector we are gifted with the obsession to maintain our needs to collect. I laugh at times thinking of a squirrel and my likeness to....not gathering nuts for a long winter but gathering specimens of round disc. Some dated some not...others bright and shinny others full of crud....corroded and dull.... No never dull! Always a story from centuries ago....from all over this world we call home. Their history their stories tell us so much.... and we their keepers are enlightened, and made excited to share this knowledge with other collectors.....or whomever they can bore or convert to the fold. If you are one of those "Keepers" and have a story to tell ,a variety to share,or a new discovery that's is going to enlighten us all.... This is your thread! Acient, world, modern....post them all... along with their stories .....so we the "Keepers " can feed our heads and enjoy the knowledge we all crave.... as coinaholics...

This was a no brainer...<$20-. See the information below. I've been collecting a few of these 15th. cent Polish hammered coins. Couldn't pass on this specimen.

Not a world coin or medal...but an WW ll Japanese banzai bugle with cord and mouth piece bent intentionally durring sunnder. And a Japanese script on a cotton cloth piece tied ti a samurai sword. Any one read Japanese?

1914/3 Buffalo nickel as well the masked Buffalo variety. As the Indian looks to have a mask due to the clashing. This particular specimen must be late state example. The EPU can be seen under the jaw, as well the clash of the buffalos back. It buffalos cape can be seen also in the throat and back of the neck. Look ver carefully you will see the eye of the buffalo between the two long feathers.
