Is the toning on the Peace dollar natural or not? I hope you post the grades.
Basically, chop marks lower a coin's market value, but I will say there are an avid group of collectors who like collecting chop marks. So there's...
At local coin shops and shows, you could find used Dansco albums from people who sold the collection. As long as they're not too old (1980's or...
I like Dansco and I do have some collections in them. I have a US and Mexico type sets, for example. They're not vinyl, though. They have sleeves...
My recommendation for this approach is to finish a 20th century V nickel collection in F-VF. That's very reasonable. You even get an opportunity...
Only you can answer that question. Just be aware that finishing that set will require some big bucks for the 1885 coin. If you're already having...
From my experience, in this situation, I would never buy the Bu coin for $500 raw. Too much risk there. I'd feel a lot better about the AU coins....
I agree with the type set solution. Up until 1863, the series is very affordable. It's only after 1863 that it gets expensive. There are 3...
Wow, those are very deceptive counterfeits. Very troubling. Yet, if the fake is that good, why not just enjoy it, eh? :hail: It would give you...
Holy Cow Batman! That thing sold for $1,940. A flurry of bidding at the end. Too much for me.
A circulated collection? Where have you found them circulating? I'd be in favor of continued production, but my idea is the mintage for each...
Senator Vitter has introduced a bill that would repeal the Presidential Dollar Coin Act of 2005: “Even though many in Congress, including myself,...
Wow, if you got a shield nickel in Fine condition for 50 cents, you got an OUTSTANDING BUY!!!! Great way to start.
Thanks jfransch for the photo. Mine will be 1737 and has similar surfaces. Great historical coins.
Thanks everyone. I like history, so I looked around some more and found a dealer specializing in these coins and he was selling some shipwreck...
Mexican reales during the 19th century were coined at several mints, including Mexico City. The 1 real coin has nearly 1/10 of an ounce of silver,...
Can you share one example of a design element being wrong for this date? Thanks.
Thanks for your opinions. You know, I think I'll deal with a real dealer on this one. I'd like to get a nice coin like this from this period, but...
And, another fly in the ointment. The high bidder on this coin is a brand new member who's only bid on one item..... This coin! Kinda strange. I...
I only have experience with sending in 2 Morgan dollars in NGC slabs to PCGS. They both crossed at the same grade. A counter-argument is that...
