What's that coin worth?
NOBODY should whinge over $15 to get a rarity properly attributed and slabbed, when the upside potential is Big Bucks... P.S., if you run your...
He only posted 2 hours ago, give him a chance to respond, maybe at work with no way to make images, and certainly no way to weigh precisely...
There are a few pennies known struck on dime planchets, and yes, they're worth a fair amount of money, but nothing like a genuine 1943 copper...
For jtlee321, you are 99% right. Here's what you left out. The bigger issue is that the governments of this country wish to monitor, regulate,...
Krause KM#241.1 with word "Nobles" below scroll; XF, $65. Krause KM#241.2 without word "Nobles" below scroll; XF, $250. There's one on eBay, but...
I just picked 1943-44-45 as a random example. There's dozens more dates that, if worn, will always be worth silver's spot price, but no...
In Krause, it's KM #133. One of those odd cases where the uncirculated is worth far more than the proof. Unc mintage is 550 pieces, proof is...
Afraid no one's going to have any useful comments if responding to that image...
I encourage you to take the coins to the show, after all, unless you think it will hurt your reputation. It's good experience to be on the wrong...

Interesting strategies -- in my (stamp) categories, I look at Buy-It-Now first. But this morning about 7 (crazy time to end an auction), I bought...
Highly predictable, typical Step 2 -- some collectors eventually lose big bucks on a deal, then badmouth the hobby for the next decade...
Sales tax (or no sales tax), in effect, creates a manipulated market. An additional 6% or 7% in the spread is generally a deal-killer. One...
It's not an issue of undervaluing or cherry-picking. To simplify your life, do a 2-stage process. First, pick out all the worn and common-date...
See my thread (and many comments) about a similar law in Ohio taking effect on July 1. The Ohio law only targets sellers, as best I can figure...
If it were simple and easy, everybody would be doing it... Join a couple coin clubs if possible, keep your ears open when they have club...
Why go to all that trouble to melt it? Why not take it to a coin show, shop around for the best price, and simply sell it?
1. Look at the big picture. 2. Talk to Ohio coin people. 3. Make a list of our personal freedoms that have been nibbled away since 9/11. Wait,...
