The Grey Sheet large cent numbers, especially for the early dates, have been wrong (too low) for many years. If the large cent specialty dealers...
My opinion of the Grey Sheet large cent prices is that they are a dealers’ dream list. You can’t buy the coins for those prices from knowledgeable...
That is a nice looking AU-58. The Grey Sheet number is only $550, but I've found the Grey Sheet numbers to be on the low side. When I was a...
A nice low mintage 1936 Proof. [ATTACH] And the last of the Proofs. [ATTACH]
Here's mine. It's the only ancient Greek coin I have and will probably be the only one I will have. I just think that it looks cool. [ATTACH]
With a mintage of 897,510, the 1797 cent is a fairly common date, but as most collectors learn, anything dated before 1800 is challenging. This is...
From an assembled 1913 Proof set. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I sold this coin more than a decade ago. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] This is pretty,...

What's to stop CAC from not putting a sticker on another rattler?
I am talking about paying over $100,000 for an 1881-S which is one of the most common dates in Mint State in the whole Morgan Dollar series. Even...
America's most beautiful coin. [ATTACH] The heaviest coins, aside from the modern quarter drinking glass "coarsters." [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Those collectors are mentally ill. I don't like "rattle holders" at all. Twenty-five years ago I used to pay have them re-holdered. These guys...
