Boy, he sound just like my son, completely unwilling to EVER admit to doing something wrong no matter what. It's seriously just banging your head...
Chris, Look again at post 19 in this thread. The letter is attached.
I'm planning on working on a set of commemoratives (both classic and modern) that are associated with New York State (where I grew up) and...
So far in the modern era of commemorative coins (1982 - present) we have had eagle and half eagle gold issues of the same size and weight at the...
Lots of worthy discussion here. I will say there is one thing I would really like: modify the annual Silver Proof Set to include a bronze cent...
Yeah, kind of pricey! I put together a 1958 set where all are PCGS PF66+ (cent) or PF67 and only the Franklin is not CAM. Cost me less than $250.

I'm with you dimedude2. Love my 2x2's and lovely afternoon and evenings stapling away with some nice prog rock tunes.
I've found 2; an 1928 when I was CRH'ing a few years ago, and a 1921 in my mom's car coin tray when I was up for a visit last year.
Barbers in all denominations were not avidly collected in their time (they were considered ugly!) so most of them ended up circulating...
Yeah, it figures. I bought two this year so I could break one up to fill out my modern sets instead of trying to find nice examples in...
