They suspended sales about the same time silver was climbing up close to the $50 mark. They were re-evaluating silver costs, or so you were lead...
I wonder how these coins are secured while the finish is applied? The nicks my be a result of this also. Looking at both the bullion and the...
There was an article in one of my daily coin news notices to that affect. At the time of the articles writing the mint was down to 800 pieces and...
The coin arrived at 8:30am this morning. That was a surprise since my notice didn't come until late yesterday and USPS said it wasn't picked up...
