IMHO I think that the Ikes and the Peace dollars are relatively cheap compared to their counterparts (Morgans) but nobody seems to like the Ikes...
My uncle started me with my first coin set in Lincoln cents. I could go to the bank, spend 2 or 3 dollars for rolls of cents, and have a good...
Rick, you are being too modest about your site and your collection. A lot of hard work is evident in both. Congratulations
My personal feeling is that I would rather have a coin in a lesser grade than one that had been cleaned. Just me, I guess. Cleaning a coin, to...
I experienced the same results. Maybe this was the Mints test of its new computer system. If so, it failed. I think the Mint should have bought...
Congratulations. Most of my sets are open-ended (they are still making them) so I won't see the end unless the Mint goes crazy. Is there an...
I believe that any of the 2005 buffalos that are in good condition will be worth money. Most of the coins that I have seen have significant bag...

To be technical, there will be four version of 'silver' U.S. coins: Proof, Silver Proof, Mint Set coins (satin finish), and business strikes. If...
When I have talked to dealers at coin shows, it seems like it's a personal preference as to NGC or PCGS. I have tried to pin a dealer down as to...
IMHO, the fact that the Mint will be putting a special finish on the Mint sets makes the uncirculated coins that much more valuable. I had...
When they released the California quarter here in Sacramento, they had the director of the Mint signing rolls of quarters. I think those might be...
I was in the Navy and installed some Navy equipment at Minot AFB (its where the Air Force's Weather-Guesser School is) and Old Dan is right....
http://www.governor.state.nd.us/quarter/ A chance for more buffaloes. Oh goody. Or maybe we could all get a goose.
I think one of the reasons that good, clean coins will be hard to find is that the field on the obverse (the area that doesn't include the picture...
You could also purchase a safe. They are a little pricy but they make them so that a thief would have to tear out the studs of your house to get...
