Try some local shops first. I can get junk silver at melt prices at my local dealer. Beats paying premiums and shipping. Plus it helps out a...
Rather than keep them in their OGP, why not get a Dansco or similar album and display them that way? I don't think Ikes will ever carry a premium...
At a local auction tonight, I was able to get the Presidential / First Spouse medal sets for Washington, Jefferson and Madison for $3.50 a piece...
Heck yeah it's causing major inflation! I've been feeling it for quite some time.
I got one of these halves the other day from a local antique shop for only $12. It was in pretty good condition, better than the one I had. Best...
I wouldn't know what to do with that much money. Give me a million and I'm set. Heck, give me $100,000, enough to pay off my house and cars,...
I hope I can get an order in before they sell out this time. I just want one reverse proof, dang it!
I bet it goes for an insane premium. Local auctions tend to do that, especially when it's something like this.
There's nothing wrong leaving a show empty handed. I do it all the time. I still enjoy browsing around.
I've only found a single 2009P out in the wild! The 2009 dimes were a bit hard as well, but I did eventually find one of both mints. I...
One of the local coin shops here uses those when I buy junk silver coins. Aren't these used for pills as well? If so, I would think they would...
My recommendation for a young person getting into coins would be the state quarters and jefferson nickels. Both can be put together through finds...
My wife doesn't give me any problems with my collecting. She's even bought me some things over the years. My kids were interested at one time,...
The auction house I frequently visit, here are some trends I've noticed: Buffalo and V nickels do NOT sell. Unless it's close to MS state or a...
Gold has priced itself out of my collection for the most part, though I will still get the 1/10 AGE proof this year as it's become an annual...
Personally I would not spend $150 for that. More like $120 is where I'd go. Put the silver proofs at $25 each, those mint sets I recently got at...
If your IKEs have silver on the edge, they are silver. Not only have silver, but an S. Now there are clad S Ikes as well. LOL Yeah, it's a bit...
Winner IMO. I'll be getting both an uncirculated and proof!
Unfortunately with the smaller amounts of gold (or silver for that matter), they usually carry a higher premium. If you want some gold at a cheap...
I got a 2012 P Lincoln cent the other day.
