Are you aware of how to
search through all galleries? Click
Search (or the magnifying
glass symbol if you are using your phone) and choose ‘
Members’
Gallery’ like the screenshot below.
There are over 117,000 file entries, with
members adding
new coins every day. Unlike the
auction house
search engines, these are people’s actual
collections and include many interesting coins that may not make it to an
auction for reasons including
price or condition.
The member adds the photo and coin description (hopefully), and the
quality of this does vary widely.
I often check the galleries to compare things like
weight and
diameter, and to ascertain scarcity in ‘real world’
collection conditions. It is a treasure trove of data that is both distinct and complimentary to the
auction house databases and reference websites like
Wildwinds.
