Silver value is $22.60. The only way you got a 'steal' is if you got a key date or they are in very high grade.
Go up? I want it to go back down. $4.00 an oz suits me fine.
Yeah, since gold has gone up, several old mines are being reopened. Most out west. Several are finishing up the permitting process. They are very...
Okay smarty pants... Tell me which is heavier, an oz of lead or oz of gold?
It's worth it's weight in silver, no more, no less. Find out how much the silver content weighs, and multiply that by the spot price of silver....
This is an NGC 03... It is in worse shape. The rim is worn right into the date and the reverse letters are half gone....
I am like some previous posters and have seen some key dates that were obviously bumped. I recall seeing some 16-Ds that were graded higher than...
That is why I suggested gambling $50 bux. They could even see it as a 04 and give it a key bump to 06... Never know. Seriously though, it would...
You must have really big ants where you live.
Point taken, it's a gamble for sure.
Someone did a good job. Too much time on their hands apparently. I can see remnants of tool marks around the field in front of Abe. I don't know...
I agree. However, like it or not, they do give bump-ups for key dates. Going from a $400 price point to $600 with a one point bump isn't bad.
That's nice. I know what you mean about aging vision. I used to have great vision, but I have been having trouble lately. I never used to need a...
I'd crack it out and send it to PCGS. They might give you a bump up for rarity. Another coin might not matter, but the difference in a key date...
If you want to save the ASE under all that color, soak it in acetone and the color will come off. Otherwise, you have a coin with post-mint...
Those are so cool! I have several, and never really knew what they were for. I learned a little bit here. I have these things mixed in with arcade...
Gold was seen as special because it never tarnishes, rusts, corrodes, or any of the other nasty things that all the other metals known to man in...
I believe it has pretty good detail. If the rim wasn't flat, it would bring a VG IMO. I call it G4. For an AG3, I'd expect to see a bit less...
If anyone wants a couple used Columbian stamps to go with their coins, I have more spares than I know what to do with. Just send me a stamp for...
The neat thing about these coins is you can expand them into a mini-collection away from your coins.... They made the 2 coins, plus they issued an...
