Thanks everyone. I figured the resounding answer would be ‘yes’ buy all you can. I think that makes sense for a few dozen sets or even a 100 sets...
If you theoretically could purchase modern ('71 on up) clad proof and mint sets at face value, what would you do? I don't see a ton of value in...
Yup, those are them. I got all every one from 1971-1988 minus the 1977 I think, plus doubles on ‘87, ‘88 and one other. Paid $7 each for them...
Numista is usually my go to for foreign coin specs but I found some conflicting info and was looking for confirmation. Thanks.
I also picked up a couple of CAD halves exactly because of their toning. I’ll try to get some pic’s in the next day or two.
This actually confirms the ‘72 is silver even though it’s at home and i’m At work. The ‘72 is the same diameter as all of the other dollars. Thanks.
Ha ha. This confirms that I’m an idiot. It never occurred to me that the silver and non-sliver version are substantially different size and...
This will be my dumbest CT post yet, and hopefully ever.... I bought a lot of Canadian commemorative dollar coins from 1971-1988 yesterday. I...
Thanks everyone. I spent a lot of time digging at several locations but was able to come away with a couple of winners.
Larry - Thanks. That looks like a match! Appreciate the info. Everyone - thanks. Really pleased with the find. I don't normally check for...
Found some decent stuff in the junk bins at the local coin store. Found a '26-D and 3 1927-D Buffalo nickels. The '26-D isn't in the bet...
I've found lots of halves that have grease filled FG's, but this is the first one truly missing the initials altogether. Thanks for looking....
Very nice find. Also a worn die and potentially a DDO - look at the ‘I’ in ‘IN GOD...’. And counter wheel damage in the hair. A lot going on here.
What is that obverse clashed with?
Is the Snow number related in any way to the coneca or CPG listing?
I’ve never looked. I could imagine someone paying a couple bucks for one.
Ha ha, I'm a weirdo. I don't think they're collectable. At least I've never met anyone else who ever expressed any interest in them, but I think...
I don't know that there's a definitive way to tell. But a couple of things to consider: 1) The damaged areas don't look fresh, they look aged....
That's exactly what that is!!! I've found several and like collecting them. A very cool piece of numismatic history.
Hello all, I bought a couple dozens Indian Head Pennies yesterday and pulled 3 RPD's from the lot. I'm not great at attributing these so I...
