S mint marks are not always an indication of a coin being a proof. San Francisco Mint produced circulation grade SBAs in 1979. 1980, and 1981.
Neither coin appears to be a proof. I'd guess they are worth $1.00 each. Sorry. You might want to go to your library and get hold of a RedBook and...
That's a beautiful set. The price you paid seems to be a bargain given just the silver value. I guess that there is limited collector demand for...
Thanks for the neat contest and congratulations to the winners. There were some pretty good guestimates.
Very interesting. While I don't have a set of the Educational Notes, I do have the BEP Cards issued at ANA Conventions with these notes on them....
Great find. Keep on the good side of those folks.
My favorite is "A Buyer's and Enthusiast's Guide to Flying Eagle and Indian Cents" by Q. David Bowers. It's been out of print for a while but can...
I'm planning to get one of each. Not sure where the $100 price idea comes from. I guess they'll be more than that.
1. Eye appeal -- universally #1 2. The best price is what I'm willling to pay for it. 3. If I like it and can afford it, I buy it. 4. If it's...

I'd guess that sales on the Mint Sets will be high because of the cents and the lack of circulating nickels & dimes. However when folks realize in...
I have to agree with most of the "sell" crowd. The only thing I'd do before selling is actually find that job. Maybe you'll luck out and get...
Tough question. If I had no funds, I'd skip the show. As mentioned, if I could scrap together $30 or more that I could afford to spend, I'd be...
I'd really like to see a closeup of the "S" on the 1947. Looks like something might be going on there.
probably a combination of exposure to the air/elements and whatever is in the paper they're wrapped in.
Don't know if they still do it but the banks in Milan and Zurich used to sell gold coins from a number of countries. In fact at the train and bus...
Nice notes and pics. The writing on the 10 peso would earn it a special place in my collection. :thumb:
Beautiful notes. Certainly a man worthy of being honored in this way.
I have a few MPCs. They're interesting and some of the designs are just fantastic. They make an interesting and attractive collection.
I put pennies, nickels and dimes in some old banks that I have. Eventually they get rolled and spent for whatever. I do spend dollar and half...
