Question: It's by a composer named Connus (spelled something like that) at the bottom of the sheet it says Rotschemirowo, 10 Aout 1901 I found different pieces by similar names.

Are protestants more likely to become atheist / non-religious than catholics? Question: I've been looking through some statistics for Australia. Catholic - 1901 20% --- 2006 23% Anglican - 1901 40% --- 2006 19% Other Christian 1901 40% --- 2006 10% No Religion 1901 0% --- 2006 15% I'm trying to work out what's going on but it's hard to really draw a conclusion. @ lainiebsky ... I didn't include people of religions other than christianity. buddhists, muslims etc. Answer: It would appear so, but I would also look into immigration and if more people who are Catholic are moving to the country... Also, here in the UK, lots of protestants are converting to Catholicism because they feel that the current Church of England is too liberal. |

So... just wondering what we're looking at realistically if I want to sell this as a coin set... I have...? Question: 1901 Indian Head Penny in "Good" condition 1905 Liberty Head Nickel in "Fine" condition 1892 Barber Dime in "Fine" condition 1899 Liberty Head(Barber) Quarter in "Good" condition and... 1904 Barber Half Dollar in "Good" condition I was thinking about asking for about $40 total. Is that realistic? I'm out of work on disability and need to start selling stuff to catch up. Any and all advice is appreciated. Thank you. Answer: It would be a 'type' set that would be easier to sell if there was a Morgan dollar to complete it. As is, $40 is a realistic 'asking' price if you're willing to take less. If you're firm, it'll be tough. In those grades, these are average 'real sales' values. .01 1.00 .05 3.00 .10 8.00 .25 7.00 .50 12.00 Total 31.00 In those grades, the quarter and half are pretty much worth just the silver. |

Baseball Mogul: Errors? Question: I am playing a 1901 season in Baseball Mogul and I am floored at the number of errors committed by the players, on both sides. Half the league is on pace for 40+ errors. Is this accurate for that time? Answer: That's perfectly normal. Honus Wagner had 60 errors in 1905, 52 in 1910, 51 in 1906, and 50 in 1903 and 1908. Other seasons were also very high. He finished his career with a .940 FP at short. However, the league average was only .926, pretty bad. That's a fourteen point difference, which is higher than Ozzie Smith's difference. |
