Welcome to the club! I've always said, I could have a world class collection if I could focus on just one area. I tend to jump around as well,...
Picture is not the best, but that doesn't look like it to me.
It seems like the common date large cents are getting tough to come by at a decent price. I still need one common date for my large cent set, and...
Numismatics is a funny hobby, an amazing piece of history like that for $15, but a normal quarter with a die chip that gets a fancy name can cost...
