SilverSurfer: I approached this subject awhile back, so there is some more helpful information in this thread: http://www.cointalk.com/t89737/
Never buried them. I did use to drop silver dollars down the air ducts in my house, though. For a small fee, I'll tell you where I used to...
Lol....I thought this would be a hockey thread. I'll just do what I came here to do: GO WINGS!!!
Yes.
I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. When this country was first started, we didn't have our own money. Back then, everyone was on a...
sorry...i'm new here. i have a lot of money to spend, but don't know what i should be investing in. is this coin for sale?
They're only worth face anyway. Crack 'em, and good luck, though I am of the firm belief that the error is unique, or close to it.

It depends if the coin is BN, RB, or RD. If it's BN (brown), it may not be so hot of a deal, though still not bad. Also, make sure it's NGC and...
Realistically, there is no chance of what you have actually occurring. You said you're not sure of the date. Perhaps if you post pictures, we...
I suppose it could be. I don't like the pictures. It has the "burnt" look of thermal-treated artificially-toned coins, but that may not be the...
I am familiar with it. When I joined the PCGS "Collector's Club", I received one just like that.
I remember getting a nickel in a box of cereal, but that was a very long time ago. I wanna say 1999, but it may have been before that. It was...
