Gee, at that price, I'll take TWO :kewl:
That's true....I actually call my local banks to see which ones have rolls of halves. For every bank that does, I have to call at least 4 or 5....
Illini has a point though -- I have found several silver half dollars in only a few rolls; I know some posters here have made phenomenal finds in...
For me, a 1941 Lincoln cent I found in change got me into the hobby, and Canadian cents got me interested in collecting Canadian coinage, and also...
I'm 28 and recall gas at 89 cents, a loaf of bread at 75 cents, a can of Pepsi at 35 cents, and a roll of paper towels for 49 cents -- and what...
Is that a real photo or something Photoshopped? The last time I think I saw a photo I trusted of the '64 Peace was in a CoinAGE magazine back in...
Proof is NOT a grade -- it's a method of manufacture!
....1989 was a BAD year for all those thousands of people who thought they were beating the stock market with their certified MS Morgans....
I JUST thought! If you want to see an example of a proof SBA, check out my avatar: a proof 1981 SBA dollar. :cool:
"S"-mint proof coins are deeply mirror-like - you can actually see your reflection in the fields of modern proof coins. The design areas (devices...
Any retail price guide probably would peg those coins at around $1.50-2 each, but I bet if I presented those two SBAs to any dealer, I'm not...
Hmm......:rolleyes:
No problem; and it's good that you asked. Learning comes through asking questions and getting answers! :smile
Proof coins from the 1970s and after are unmistakably mirror-like; the devices (basically, the raised parts of the design) on modern proof coins...
I have not called myself yet, but if I had to, I would. Those guys have been around a long time -- they're professionals. And by the way,...
I've been there myself. I once sold off a nearly complete type set of coins from the 19th and 20th centuries (nothing "super"--just basic designs,...
The risks are too great. Chances are, a tiny little tick is going to show up and prevent the MS 70 grade and the FS designation. If it were my...
Illini, The only thing I worry about with the piece is, maybe, that dark spot about 7:30 from "Liberty" may cause an issue.... AU 58?...
I'm going to be bold and suggest 66 here....But I say that given the view of the coin I have. Maybe in hand I would think differently. That is an...
Thanks for the reply. Here's the best photo (the seller's eBay photo) I can manage to get of my 1909-S. I thought it was just discoloration at...
Separate names with a comma.
