There's a shortened guide to error coin values in the red book. Error coins are avidly collected by many people. There's a forum area devoted to...

Silver kills all germs, viruses included. While I'm no expert grader and don't even own any magnifiers stronger than 10x, the color of a coin...
In the old days, people would hang a sliver dollar in a pitcher of milk when it was going to be out unrefrigerated for a few hours such as at a...
FDR prolonged the depression. It never ended until he finally died in office. We adopted an amendment to the Constitution to keep any future...
Aw, don't worry about it. Some of the kind of snobby collectors think that just because a coin has been Tarnexed that it's way uglier than one...
