Checked last night and at least by 2003 the special presses with extra pressure were being used for the mint sets. However, well struck regular...
I think the 'extra pressure' sets actually began before the satin finish sets. I saw this somewhere, may have been in the insert from one of my...
I'm working on a 1965 SMS set in PCGS slabs (my wife's birth year) since the raw sets always seem a bit underwhelming. Getting all SP66 and...
Well, I do remember buying silver eagles as presents for the groomsmen at my wedding in 1988. I think I paid about $8 for them.
Gorgeous (and my favorite coin series!!). Absolutely DCAM!
Yes, they definitely are. $18.95 each. I haven't looked for them on the new web site, but they must be there somewhere.
Good grief, you guys must HATE older coins, and barf at the site of something like an MS63 Indian Cent. Oh the humanity, an almost imperceptible...
I will be there at noon Thursday till whenever I get broke!
Definitely a proof (look at the sharpness of the 11 sided edges, and the slightly raised wire rim). Could be a type II, I seem to remember the S...
Not a big fan of Perry's Victory (and I get so many of those!) or Hot Springs. Really like most of the others, including Mt Rushmore.
The only WAM I have is a '98 I paid a few bucks on ebay for, never found one in circulation though I check all the cents that pass my way (and I...
It looks as though my initial question was misunderstood. I was not talking about the retail-resale market of silver proof sets, I was talking...
Silver has dropped below $18 today; any chance the Silver Proof Set will drop below the current $53.95?
I am really surprised by the perception that this silver set is somehow way overpriced. How much does the mint sell annual commemorative CLAD...
You can define a 'full set' any way you like... sure, this would be a full set of clad roosies...
I've got one almost exactly like yours. Same wear, same S mintmark. I just assume its a 1918/7... :shy:
Is anyone aware of anyone building and selling business strike 'mint' uncirculated sets for the years the mint 'did something else'? Specifically...
Liberty Nickels. Would love a full set with full kernels on the bottom left ear of corn... those are tough.
Eagle chest feathers and the wing elbows have nice details, I would push this to a 64 or 65.
OMG... 250 1931 Philadelphia double eagles... 20-25k each. That's 5-6.25 million dollars for the bag (with coins). NICE!
