but not really hunting. Rolled up my piggy banks last weekend. I thought it was interesting to see the distribution. I didn't bother with anything...
That, and I couldn't care less what their marketing costs are. I see all the insurance company ads on TV and think, oh, so that's what I'm paying...
I'm curious whether you think his 1964 Peace dollars are also fantasies. These were actually minted and no one knows if they were really all...
Yeah, the 9 and the 1s don't "precisely match" either. So the contention is that not only were these struck in a clandestine operation, but they...
I can understand that if it's an image of a real slab. The seller could claim "stock image" or something I guess. But in the case of the 1913,...
I guess "our nation's monuments" excludes world coins, despite being in the Coin Chat section.
Nobody knows if originally it was only 5. The dies were already made for 1913 Liberty nickels. In fact, they shipped 10 pairs to San Francisco on...
I was referring to the 5 Liberty plus 3 Buffalo patterns. The case the 5 Liberties were originally in had 8 holes and at least two of the holes...
The argument that US Customs could monetize a coin seems pretty lame. I suppose it was murky enough and they were getting half the money, so good...
I will be more considerate to plumbers in my posts from now on.
It was cut short by the Kennedy assassination. Otherwise it still would have been phased into clad and we'd probably be getting Franklin half...
Odd, I was rolling up my change jar today and ran across this eerily similar one. Kind of interesting how the metal got folded over and smoothed...
Maybe it is one.
"Only 4 left" on the 1913 cracks me up. If people are that stupid, then so be it I guess. It is an image of the actual coin, bought by GC in 2022...
Garbage disposal or lawn mower perhaps.
I've had these stacked on my desk for upwards of three years. I wonder at what point I'll just spend them. I think they're all cool designs...
I have never seen "experimental anti-tarnishing agent" on a slab before. Weird! How is that a "mint error"? Seems like it was deliberate, not an...
You might be thinking of one of these things worn on a belt; I remember them too. Seems like every carnival worker had one. Same kind of thing,...
I'd like to get one someday too, as a Barber coin (reverse from a sketch by Morgan). This quote from wikipedia cracked me up. "The event...
[ATTACH]I like the reeding marks on the reverse. I don't know why but Franklins seem to be more prone to them than other coins. [ATTACH]
