@debshugg - your Meiji Dragon looks fine to me. I also have that same coin with the same year. These are just awesome coins in general. And yes,...
Yes, double confirming. My 2016 has the 84 million as well. Hm. Nice catch. Someone apparently missed that tiny 600 million or so...
Hardly anyone knows and the people I do tell never seem to care. The few times in my life it has come up in conservation resulted in the fastest...
Apparently, some people thought that the lowered surfaces (often called "incuse") on the US $2.5 and $5.00 Indian gold pieces could harbor...
As others have said, walking away was the right move. It sounds like the dealer attempted to play hard ball with you, perhaps to see how much you...
Ultimately, no one really knows what will happen so all anyone can really provide, short of necromancy or clairvoyance, are educated guesses. For...

This is the Frank Gasparro prototype that I've seen: [IMG] I've also heard the tale of how the mint and the numismatic community tried to advocate...
Wow... I've barely seen any 2016 coins in change... and others have already seen 2017 examples... for a few decades I've put P & D cents from...
I admit I've never understood all of the rancor thrown at the SBA dollar from a purely aesthetic perspective. I completely understand its utter...
Thanks for the comments, everyone! That's the wonderful thing about these little circular objects - there's something for everyone. Not only...
