I love when the networks compare their prices to "the leading numismatic catalogues." They are usually refering to Littleton, whose prices we all...
That is a good estimate. However, I will note that in recent auctions I have attended, the three cent nickels in lower grades are bringing a...
I think the fact that they monetize bullion coins, even if at rather trivial amounts, makes an important psychological difference for some...
I just cannot see that thing in a 63 holder. The obverse has definitely been cleaned to some extent. The back, however, does looks like it may...
