Our coin glossary is back up and running. You should be able to add new terms and search for existing words without troubles.

As of right now there's 131 listings for Coins with spikes on eBay
and the prices range from just a couple of dollars for a spiked Roosevelt dime to thousands of dollars for some half cents dating back to the early 19th century.
