I went the mint set route, but only for 1968 and up. Most that I have are pretty nice, though there are some exceptions that could use upgrades...
My understanding (and supported by inserts that were in Mint sets back in the late 90's) is that the Uncirculated Mint Sets produced annually by...
Ive seen several 2018 cents, a couple of dimes, and two of the 2018 quarter designs. All Philly mint. No nickels yet.
I'm growing obsessed with the half eagle. I got three of them from my mother in law (1881, 1907, and 1911D). Circulated but not cleaned or...
I have a Minelab X-Terra 305. Haven't had a lot of luck, just found around a dollar's worth of change on Ocean City Maryland beach. A little...
Looks like a type 2 to me.
This does appear reflective, could be a proof. The marking at 4 o'clock could have happened if the sealing machine from the original packaging...
Just 8 Washingtons to go for me (32DS, 34D, 35DS, 36D, 37S, 39S). Spend a good long time trying to find a 40D that I liked, finally happened upon...
Home improvement spending (recently became empty nesters!) leaves my pockets empty right now. Hope to be at the Fall/Winter show.
Got my first 18 dime (P) this weekend too. Seen a few cents, but no nickels or quarters (other than my mint and proof sets!)
I built a complete set from mostly mint and proof sets. Just missing the 1995 and 1997 silver proof versions. The 1965 - 1967 I bought as raw...
This is true. Between two cards I have accumulated over $1500 in cash back rewards in the last year or so - pay everything off before interest...
I have a variety of containers : pretzel container for my copper cents, coffee mug for my Zincolns, old ceramic bowl for my quarters, ovaltine jar...
As many of the half eagles of the 1820's as I could afford. The 1822 would probably take a while...
I like this thread, I turn 60 in November. Thinking I would like to find an affordable proof coin from 1858.
Ike sets really are pretty nice. I have a set that is just missing a 1972 type 2. All uncirculated and proof. I may add the 1990 commemorative...
Wait, a quarter eagle, not a half eagle? That would be the first quarter eagle minted since 1929!
Found a shiny 1959 just yesterday, with a stamped pipe in Lincoln's mouth and smoke rings rising over his head. Yes, I know it is not worth...
No 2018's in circulation here in Baltimore yet that I have seen. It is getting a bit late in the year to be missing that first one...
I use a little 'rubber' bulb that came with an ear cleaning kit to blow dust off my 2x2 and coin prior to stapling. As long as you never put any...
