You and I have a polar opposite definition of rarity. Your definition of rarity when applied to moderns isn't even the one used by most other...
This quote here, this is what I am talking about when I told you I have never encountered anyone who is so easily offended as you. You are...
You haven't been a party to my prior post exchanges with cladking. I am aware of what you included in your post, either from what cladking has...
The extract you took from my post has absolutely nothing to do with your post. I was referring to buying of US moderns by collectors outside the...
No, it isn't "modern bashing". I disagree with your opinion and you just do not like it. It isn't my fault your perception of these coins...
I have exchanged hundreds of posts with you elsewhere and I have never either stated or implied that anyone should not collect moderns if they...
It is apparent that British coins are preferred by US collectors compared to the vast majority of other non-US coins which is why the prices are...

If you don't already, you and others who are interested in a specialized area would find content you want in a club periodical. Since most US...

Looks like damage to me and not a counterstamp.
I left this reason out of my last reply. IMO, this is the second primary reason. Except for the money, 20th century and later US sets are easy...
What set or sets do you have in mind? If you are referring to the most popular US sets, it isn't that there aren't enough collectors with the...
Nothing wrong with that. However, I believe the most popular "key" dates achieved their current status when collecting was predominantly out of...
There can be a big difference in scarcity between pre and post 1933 dates in US coinage because 1933 is (apparently) when album collecting became...
Is this value for collecting dollar or potential appreciation? If the first, I think they are decent collector values in the context of US...
I collect from a limited number of series and almost never buy anything else. In most of them, most of the coins I own are AU or better. Also,...
