Great find, don't know how you do it. Redbook was a revelation for me in helping to put together a type set. Also, the number of varieties for...
First, I enjoyed all the ancient coins! For those of us who are somewhat caffeine intolerant, my choice is San Francisco Bay French Roast pods....
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The only thing I don't like is when a somewhat rare or historic coin is mutilated into jewelry. Common...
If the seller is smart, he/she would try to sell it on Etsy! Lots of naive idiots frequent that site.
Wow! Great examples of tiny coins. Thanks for the pics!
I agree with others as scratches, looks to "new" to be otherwise. IMHO
Many articles questioning authenticity and statements that the coins have been cleaned. What better way to establish both would be to spend the...
I can't believer this nonsense has gone on for 7 pages. As many have already said this is PMD (post mint damage) nothing more. If you see a...
Why is this guy still able to sell on e-Bay? Apparently e-Bay is so busy concentrating on making money, they're not enforcing their own policies.
But the U.S. Mint, if they are truly committed to "making a profit" will continue to strike enhanced uncirculated and proof cents and nickels for...
Very informative article, and thanks for pointing out the TPG's scam concerning First Strikes and Early Releases.
e-Bay lists cheapest 5FS for $60.00, and that example doesn't come close to yours. Was there a personal reason for the date? No matter, your...
I would add that the U.S. Mint is catering more to the handful of dealers who then can control what we collectors are charged on the secondary...
No comment on the why or when removal, but it would have been cool for them to have found the time capsule. Wonder if it was placed inside the base?
I learned a long time ago to set parameters on how much I was willing to spend on a particular coin + did I really need it! I utilize MA Shops...
I agree with most everyone else, why is it not encapsulated and graded? Could be because it would grade with details, or is it even authentic?...
In their infinite wisdom, the U.S. Mint decided to issue a business strike "s" quarter two years after the ATB coins were first minted. I don't...
Great set! Especially the silver proofs. Do you have the protective covers for each album?
Keep in mind the value of the coin is what you think of it for the purpose of keeping it. Sentimental value goes a long way in how you judge a...
Nice find! Keep using your son to help look for errors/varieties. His eyesight is probably better anyhow!
