I'm trying to get an example of ALL the coins struck in 1941. And I know full well that I won't get all; some are just too pricey. But I can...
I look at the current value of a coin with original surfaces (catalogs, auction results, etc.) then take 50% of that. Then I adjust that figure...
For quite a few years I've been working on a Birth Year set of world coins. It's not a primary set for me: just a fun thing. I'll never complete...

I need two coins to complete my type set: -- a 1796 quarter -- a 1796 or 1797 half dollar Shouldn't surprise anyone that they are on my wish list...

I'm not good at Capped Bust dimes but .... A quick look has me thinking it's a JR-1. Oversized dentil on the obverse (see the dot below the 8)....

I've been imaging a part of my collection, Capped Bust Half Dimes. I haven't been happy with the results. Part of the problem is taking the...
