First time in a while.
Yes. Treasure Trove rules don't apply to single coins.
I've had a hand in the till since the late 1970's. I have the only $1 1981 mule/non-mule/mule triplet I've ever seen. I have a $20 1977 with a...
Notes current in the 1980's are unlikely to be circulating now. Even 100's from that era have been actively withdrawn for many years. But yeah, if...
I deal in collectibles as a business. Not coins because I love and collect them myself (a dealer should never partake of his own product). I know...
Often it's not obvious until later that a current note is going to be a premium note. I believe there are some scarce runs in recent $100's, but I...
I started investing in gold only a few years ago. I decided to have diverse holdings, just in case whoever I was trading with in the future had a...
I began buying silver years ago, as part of a diversified long-term investment portfolio. When it hit $20 this month, I sold about 7% of my...

All 1968 half dollars contain 40% silver.
Interesting. In stamp collecting that would just be considered a poor cutting job.
Looks hand cut from a sheet. How were they delivered?
Goldbugs are obsessed with gold, so they assume everybody else is, too. Gold coins were recalled in 1933 because the arcana of the law meant that...
The fraudster is uneducated. Do this properly and you can make a reasonable-looking fake, but you have to know how notes are printed. I've seen a...
Ridiculous. How would the government find it? Door-to-door gold search? Be a lot simpler just to confiscate bank accounts.
Nominally it's about 108,000,000 mark, but they are nearly all inflation notes, with the lower denominations coming from earlier in the process,...
midas1 -The government used to wash circulating currency just like you did. I've seen photos of huge washing machines at the BEP, being attended...
No slab on eBay, but good scans that showed wrinkles, a wisp of a center fold and a blunt corner. Conservatively graded by the seller as XF....
