And welcome to the forum as well! Best Regards, George
The 1925 Canadian cent is VF or so and worth maybe 20-30 bucks (retail). Nice find!
This is pretty much how I feel too. Both have value, I try to stay away from the venom spewers but there are lots of nice folks in both places....
Darn! Sorry to hear it.
Good luck George! I remember in particular two nice sets I bought from Tom DeLorey at HJB. One was a complete MS64 PCGS set of Franklin halves. I...
Thank you! If anyone actually goes by the store I would enjoy hearing how Tom and Bob are, what coins they had offered for sale, and what they...
The guys at Harlan J Berk, 31 North Clark St downtown, are really nice, but they have better coins including ancient and world coins. Far as I...

I mean that the general perception among a lot of folks is that dealers make 30% on every coin. It just doesn't happen that way. My sports...
