Thanks for the feedback. I stopped by on my return trip and picked up some more info and a "few" more coins (30 of them :D ). Thanks for the...
I was traveling for work this week through NH, MA, RI, CT, and NJ. I just started collecting Morgan's this summer and there are no coin shops in...
You're bringing back some memories. The stories I could tell you.... my parents had an antique store for about 20 years and focused on furniture....
GD, I think you were referring to my post and pictures on the Morgan dollars from Gates Rubber Co. http://www.cointalk.org/showthread.php?t=3566
Prethen, thanks for the pointer to this dealer. I ordered a couple of coins last week. He contacted me immediately to inform me of shipping and...
This beats my $5 lottery winnings from 1999 by a million miles! Thanks for the gift ... and thanks for all of the great information this week. I...
Sorry. I wasn't trying to do a "find Waldo" on anyone. I missed the details in my excitement. Yes. It's a die fill. The E is mostly missing...
I already replied, but I like this one too. Got it in a Dutch auction for $8. Listed as "1921 Morgans, mixed mints, mostly AU". I realized I...
The responses and the referenced article were great. Thanks for taking the time to give me details. From what I've read, I'm starting to think...
PCRDNADAVE, GDJMSP, JODY526 - thanks for the feedback. I've gained more info since joining this forum a week ago than I have in several months of...
I don't think they've been cleaned. It's a reflection from my scanner. The one that was wiped looks a little dull on the obverse... and with a...
I bought these at a flea market this past summer. I mentioned in another thread that I am a very new collector. These were the first coins I...
I don't want to put myself down (my wife does that for me), but I'll take your opinion over my 90 days of collecting experience. Here's another...
My poor scan might be showing a shadow on the left. Item 394415306 on eBay...
Thanks. It wasn't my math, it was my lack of knowledge about nickels. I used 20 per roll.
I just found this in a cup of change on my desk at home. The 3 is severely doubled on the right. Couldn't find it listed in my book, but a...
I thought those nickels were only 35% silver and weighed 5 grams. Not sure if I did the math right. I came up with $85.
Thanks John. Sounds like a VAM 6. There is a tiny vertical gouge just below the eyelid (not touching it) and a small horizontal gouge directly...
From what I've been reading about NTC, I'm not even sure I would get an 1878 coin. I'm not judging, just getting educated. Also, $600 is about...
Not sure if this is too specific of a question for the forum. I mentioned in a few other notes that I am a very new collector. I picked up an...
