How's the club going?
A number of years ago, my dealer was getting ready to scrap some 80% Canadian silver. I asked if I could pick through it before he sent it off to...
I have no limit other than what my budget will bear. I've paid hundreds for coins that I took a chance on. My quarters registry set has some great...
I would argue that the difference in prices comes from marketing alone. Instacollectors, i.e. people with too much money who want to put some in...
Here is a high grade pic of a 42/1 D merc. Notice the slight doubling of the 4 at the base, also the bottom of the one peeking out of the base of...
Interests wax and wane, it's just a fact of life. I've been collecting since my grandfather got me started when I was ten. But yes, there have...
In. PM sent. This should be fun.
That 42S is gorgeous, such a hard to find coin in gem condition.
1859 Eulogistic Medal of Washington, minted by Joseph H. Merriam, Boston, Mass. Listed as Baker-88 in W.S. Baker's Medallic Portraits of George...

I'm glad they got there all right, and I'm happy that the dealer came through for your kids in the end. I hope the kids have lots of fun learning...
I love proof barbers...I only wish I could afford more of them.
Definitely an nice AU coin. If you can get that blob of detritus off the obverse at 12:00 and the other bit above star 6, I'd say the coin stands...
I would have to say that the third set of photos seems to be the best. The first set just appears too washed out and flat, killing any luster the...
very nicely done.
I've had this one for a while now, but I thought I would submit it to NGC with my most recent submissions, mostly for the confirmation of the O/O...
Quite a few of you hit the nail on the head. When I sent it in I knew there was a tiny bit of wear on the hair in front of the ear and the very...
Just picked my shipment up today. In that shipment was this bad boy, purchased for a song from a dealer who thought the filled D was "ugly" and...
that looks to be a S-120(b) 1797 large cent (reverse of 1795), worth way more than $20 all by itself. Nice pickup.
Do any of you all know how often the rarity ratings for the Overton numbers are updated. Seems like the last set I can find is from around 2004.
