When you get past the error (of what, I have no idea), you must also laugh at the grading; MS65+ my $#%!
$375 for a 1909S IHC.
I was surfing the bay today and noticed this "contemporary" 1881 cc morgan silver dollar. I thought it was pretty clever of this Chinese seller...
Yes, the posting is very misleading. The 1970 proof set was the last year that the Kennedy half was 40% silver. In 1971, it went to copper...
It is the coin of the year. It will increase in value over the Lincoln Chronicle set!
I would look in your local papers, or in our town a free paper called the pennysaver, for local auctions. Look for the ones that will state...

I have a plethora of mint and proof sets. I get them at auctions and they have come down in price over the past few years. I think that you did...
Wow, what a thread! I thought that I was reading a BNB novel again. I needed a bowl of popcorn and a few beers to wade through this one. I must...
Good luck Richard. Will you specialize in certain coins or be a Walmart?
Since I'm a collector and not a seller, I think that it has helped me. I've been able to buy a lot of coins over the past two years at 25-50%...
Kind of like when we switched to the metric system?
It is looking like the 2010 silver and clad proof sets may be the lowest in some time. Is it the year?
It is the best thing since sliced bread. I've already ordered five through the subscription.
