Looks authentic, but the one thing that worries me is the porosity. It could be a cast fake. I'd send it in for authentication to one of the major...
I predict silver will top $50 in May 2011. Lots of momentum. As for the top, who knows? But it's going to take out the old high for sure.
Just got my direct ship Native American 2011-P rolls. I've only looked at one roll so far, but the quality seems very nice. Not many marks on the...
Shield nickel for most ugly design. It's a great collectible, but when it first came out, it reminded some folks of a tombstone.
Thanks for the replies. I just ordered a box of 2011 Native American dollars. Looks like I'm on backorder until April 21.
Silver WILL make a new high As long as we're into some friendly speculation, I do believe that silver will definitely take out the old high over...
OK, so the 2011 Native American coins are out. I want to order them direct ship but I find the Mint shopping site a bit confusing. They have an...
Wow, that's far behind last year's schedule. I guess the Mint is overworked with the America the Beautiful program.
I didn't realize the launch was postponed. Thanks for pointing that out. And these are one of my favorite coins too. Can't wait to get a direct...
I saw that the Mint launched the 2011 Native American Sacagawea dollar coin in January. But when I go to the Mint's website, I don't see them...
I think putting together a set in F-VF would be an excellent challenge. The tough dates would be 1921 (already have it), 1928, and 1934-S. But...

Wow, what a commitment. If you did 8 hrs a day, it would take more than 6 months to complete. .But realistically, you can do it in a year if you...
In addition to the thoughtful answers above, it does set a floor for the price of the coin. If the price of gold collapses below $50, you are...
I expect the demand to be high with the bullion issues, but I'm not so sure about the numismatic issues. The Mint has never really produced...
Mint director Moy is not only planning to strike the 5-oz America the Beautiful quarters this fall, but also is seeking to strike proof and other...
I'm not planning on owning one, but apparently director Moy thinks these will be a hit.... he's investigating striking numismatic versions of...
I can't answer all your questions, but generally, variety attribution is an extra fee. You can reduce this fee by researching the variety yourself...
Make sure you get a DCAM or Deep Cameo designation with the PF69 grade. All high end modern coins that are worth anything need this designation....
I just received my 2010 America the Beautiful Quarters Silver Proof Set. I must admit, it's a nice looking set. I like the luster of silver a bit...
