Gotham City Police car? Nice ... :)
It is but there are some nice coins shown - worth a visit if you're into Barbers. @Elbesaar who started this thread had a great collection. He...
Remember late at night when you could get AM stations from hundreds of miles away? You might pick up a Twins game from Minnesota or a Cardinals...
Based upon a quick internet search, it appears the 40% silver coin is 2g heavier than the clad proof. 24.59g vs. 22.68g But I could be wrong.
Wow, that's a nice, well-struck half!
Thanks, good info. A quality group of clad mint sets could be a fun and challenging treasure hunt. Without breaking the bank. Something to consider.
Nice photos. I don't remember them looking that attractive when they were issued. They are actually quite nice.
Love the art deco eagle on the Bridgeport.
Might want to consider one of these to preserve the pedigree (a little). Or not :) On second thought, the '69 set is an oddball and won't fit...

That is where I would search. Newspaper articles of the day should be a good gauge of public sentiment.
An exception to that may be the Barber coins replaced in 1916. Although technically well-executed, the design was almost universally disliked and...
Just to clear up what we are all wondering - do the coins look like uncirculated coins with environmental damage, or do they look like they have...
The answer to your question is "yes, it's normal". The blue pack should have a "P" quarter, dime, and cent, plus a "S" cent and nickel. Your...
I tried picking one of those up in a parking lot once and it didn't end well.
Nah, probably just exposure to the atmosphere and everything it contains. Kinda pretty.
I went to Lowe's on my lunch break today and noticed a nickel on the ground as I crossed the parking lot. Of course I picked it up, that's what we...
It's a motley set. The make up of the 1969 Mint Set was 3 Lincoln Cents (P, D, S), 2 Jefferson Nickels (D, S), 2 Roosevelt Dimes (P, D), 2...
