It might be from one of the episodes that have already been mentioned, but when I was kid I remember that Mr. Wilson had a tray of coins on the...
Oops! The photo of my coin is by Heritage.
The toning is either artificial or it's been photoshopped. Here is a top graded. PR-66+, piece from "Coinfacts." [ATTACH] Here is a Proof I...
You are correct. EBay always has some "new fish" coming on-line, especially when they see the stock market go down and get desperate to buy new...
I’ve been outed.
My wife and I went to sell some items from my mother's estate yesterday. We learned that this little item, made of sterling silver, could fit on...
That one is very well struck, which is a plus. I think that toning is the result of having been dipped and then retoning. I've had coins go that...
I have never acquired any of these shipwreck sets because the dealers at the U.S. shows are still charging high prices for them. Back in the...

The sharpness grade is Fine-15, but it's been cleaned.
I want to finish my one a year cent set. I am down to five dates. 2025 is one of them. ;)

The point is collectors only have so much money PEROID. Unless inflation pushes up incomes to cover $5,000 gold, which would not be a good thing...
Since you are from the south, there probably were not that many half cents circulating there ever. I've seen some early half cents that must have...
My example is also graded MS-65. This was issued during the "collector period" for the classic commemoratives. For that reason, they tend to come...
Here is my pair. Both are Proofs. This one is an MS-64. [ATTACH] It has nice mirrors, but you have to hold it at an angle. [ATTACH] My...
This 1858 half dime is a Proof. That was the first year the mint made an effort to sell Proof coins to the general public. Before then they had...
I like that one. It's well struck with early die state dies. Many of the Bust type have mushy details or chunks of metal in the field because die...
