This is a tough sell in a day and age when most serious collectors are not looking to advertise that they collect thereby inviting a robbery....
Change is my way of "rounding up" for the next coin show. If I get a pocket full of change, I dump it into a type of storage tube bank at home...
Its just sitting on a shelf with some ancients in a booth at an antique mall.
I don't even think it's a real quarter. The letters are not sharp and the graininess makes it look like a cast coin.
Ok. I got it in hand again and I just couldn’t pull the trigger. Here are better pics. The reverse strikes just seem far to mushy and soft with...
I know that’s a poor photo but best I could get. Any take always from this? I’m thinking about buying it. The reverse strike shows up correctly...

I'm going with a friend. The last one I went to was 2011. Been 10 years and after not going to any shows last year due to Covid, I was like...
I bailed on it myself. Was playing around with it this spring. Got in at .34 and then again at .60. Watched it rise to over .70 and was waiting...
Yeah, I can kind of see your point. An auto dealer is a private corporation that forces you to go through their middle men dealers. The Mint is...
People are not able to think outside of the box on dealers. A coin dealer, which I am not, puts food on the table by SELLING COINS. They have...

It amazes me what coin collectors manage to become over releases like this. I was aware of the program but didn’t know the details until I read...
Have noticed a the same. I recently bought a seated dime with arrows off there. I made an offer on this coin maybe 3 or 4 YEARS ago. Nobody...
Ah, never mind. I went back and looked at it in hand. I think it's a fake quarter with a faked error. At first it did look a little oblong and...
It’s not online. I found it locally kind of hiding at a store. I didn’t know if I ran across an overlooked gem or an overpriced error. I...
I recently ran across a Washington quarter from the 60s with a major over strike error on the obverse. Imagine regular strike and then struck...
Yeah, I don't know why collectors do this to their family. It's not fair to leave a huge collection to family without documentation. YOU...
It will be the first test run of the mints website for a relatively hot product since the Morgan release. Is anyone placing bets as to whether...
Wow this is an old thread. Glad it got bumped though. The Philadelphia mint being the first mint and closest to where all the action was, was...
