Congrats Steven. Figured this would probably be a short thread, lol. More info on the 1975-S No S proof set/key coin, from Coinweek: Modern...
Hint: Only 2 have been found, thus far, and most collectors are probably unaware of this proof set's scarcity due to its dime component. Another...
I dunno ... I wouldn't put a lot of stock into that graphic. First, I'm not sure what that index really includes, and even if it did include the...
Do you mean modern commems or even the older silver commems, or both?
Common to see rubbed areas revealing light reddish undercolor on fake copper coins. See them on fake Indian heads frequently. If you see that...

I am so totally gun shy of purchasing raw Indian Head cents in online auctions, as I've been stuck with several counterfeits. For me, those have...
Check out the 3 separate listings (Lots 19bb, 48bb, and 71aa) for 1926 Oregon Trail Commemorative Dollars. So obvious that they're cast metal and...
Just some info on importing or selling counterfeit coins. The Collectible Coin Protection Act enacted into law in 2014 strengthened the original...
