Welcome! I would take her to a coin shop (or coin show, etc) and see what she's drawn to. Collecting is a personal choice thing moreso than...
Some coins, yeah probably. However, I don't think that's too different from now, just look at Morgans and Peace Dollars. I believe that's a good...
This pretty much describes my personal experience with collecting, and I agree with this in general. I collected as a kid back in the early 80's,...
I had one of the gold ones, the .37toz, and it took me forever to find out what it was also. I'll see if I can dig up the links I found back then.
1) Probably your best bet for the best return on the sale 2) you'll sell it but may take a bath on the fees and shipping 3) Worst idea 4) There...
I've been doing errors and varieties recently. I hoarded up on some recent Lincoln errors (2009's mostly), and have been picking up different...
Man, I have too many to post... most of my collection is modern proofs... :) Here's a few I already have in my upload manager. [ATTACH]...
I agree with Kirkuleez. Leave that one in the slab, and get a raw one. PM sent.

Seems APMEX now has an eBay store presence, and from looking over the weekend their shipping was $4.95 for a lot of the items. Not sure if they...
They both end up with 1toz of gold contained within but I believe that is correct with the purity amounts. I think it boils down to personal...
I picked up about 30 different blue/brown Ike's, and my total average cost with shipping, was just about $11 (this was when silver was @ $34...
Diversify the gold. I think BioEtOH had a very good post, and I would second most of what was said there. However, I would throw in there that...
In either case I'd inform the buyer of their mistake, and offer them a chance to correct it for the proper prices. Most people should understand,...
I just got some real nice silver state quarter sets (thanks Mike!), and I'm definitely happy with them. I am thinking I'll probably do the ATB...
I'd max out at $1200 for that without being able to see more detail on the actual coins. The melt on the Morgans is about $500+, the two CC's...
Good info so far, thanks all. I have an account at a local TD Bank and have used their coin counters before, so I could do that in small chunks....
I have to get the cherrypicker's guide ordered, been wanting to do that for a while. One more question for ya - after you're done searching the...
