Has anyone purchased any coins through Amazon yet? I have browsed a couple of times and it seems like most everything is retail price. I don't...
I have never personally submitted any coins for grading to any TPG. At what value do you personally choose to send Registered Mail verses Priority...

I bought a semi key date Barber dime that was stored in a small manilla envelope for probably a few decades. The sulfur in the envelope turned it...
Price guides are just that, a guide. The best way to tell what something is worth is to check auctions that have ended. There are multiple auction...
Just read your article. Very well done and very thorough. I learned a lot.
I work at a bank and I go to all the change that comes through there. When I get bored I look through the dollar coins just for fun. You never...
