Thanks everyone for your comments! Happy to share since I just found out myself. :-)
Proofs are really nice. And - depending on the particular coin design (IMO) - Reverse Proofs can also be really stunning.
Have you ever accepted something you read or learned as true, only to find out years later that it wasn't so? One of the first things I learned...
As already mentioned, it looks excessively cleaned and polished. It's called the "Braided Hair" large cent. It was the last U.S. large cent. It...
Thank you. I suppose when it comes to insets comprising of gemstones or artglass, it would be tougher to assess. (Having lots of problems...
Also, aside from the weird looking date (already mentioned), that 2020 has the wrong reverse. The font changed as of 2008. What's shown is from...
Here's what their ad looks like. Very similar (even identical) to many I used to see on social media. [ATTACH] And in one particular photo,...

I don't think many people send greeting cards anymore. Hope the illness was not extended or debilitating.
Yeah - I think they're really nice, in a nostalgic way. I never even knew about these figurines until last weekend. Some of them are really nice,...
It seems so long ago... 1999 Delaware (the First State!) was the inaugural coin in the Statehood Quarters program. In a few years, it'll be a...
Just wondering where the bill would come out of?
Thanks everyone. I had initially thought the designs were involved too. Lol.
Does the U.S. Mint release a limited quantity of new coins (meaning those with new designs) to certain companies before the official public...
This is the Japanese piece that I think @gxseries is referring to. This one is 1860-1869, Japan, 2-Shu. But it's not 75% gold. Just under 30%...
