[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I'm still spending some time with my Proof Sets. Checked my 1968, and of course I checked the Dime first. Mine has the...
Picked up a 1981 Proof Set today. I have a question about the Susan B Anthony. I'll post photos but I must take them through the holder. I'm not...
That is too funny!
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I live just outside Dallas, Texas so that a W San Antonio Mission was a pleasant surprise. In excellent condition since it...
Is it a small date? I think it could be. It leaves a little to be desired regarding condition, but I just realized that I didn't have a 1970-S...
What in the world could have caused this? Also the photos of the reverse show some stress cracks that look very odd.
I have seen YouTube videos by Blueridge about fake error coins done in a vise. I found this 1996-D in a coin roll. Is it possible to have a coin...

That is the tag I put on it.

I picked up a 1989-D to put it in the cull pile. Something didn't feel right, so I put it on the gram scale. This zinc Memorial should weigh 2.50...
I don't bother to keep copper either. I look for any missing dates in my collection and also errors and variaties. But if all you get are '83s to...
This time of year I usually have good luck hunting customer rolls from the bank. Today I picked up a box of red customer rolls. In the first ten...
If the idea is that this is a bronze coin from a 1943 steel penny die, the 3 is completely wrong. The 3 on the 1943 steel penny is not flat on the...
Randy, I remember those days as well. I'm 74 years old and was also collecting back in those days. I just never received a Mint Set with mixed...
I will try this again. I paid less than $10 over face for the 12 coins. If they had been truly uncirculated coins I think that they would have...
