I agree with most of this. It seems most people are pretty honest on eBay, or it wouldn't work at all. Of course every seller wants a maximum...
I agree that selling to a dealer is not as profitable as selling yourself through eBay. If you have the time, it's easy to open an account and...
As I said before, spend $5 and send it to CONECA. If it's really an error, they will forward it to ANACS for you. If not, then you get it back and...
Man, all you guys got some really neat stuff ! All I did was grab a 1938 D Jefferson that completed a set through '64. Filled the last empty hole....
All in all, eBay seems to still be the best venue for a whole lot of us to sell something. I mean, I have looked at the alternatives and can...
That's what I do. Anything that looks "funky" and all the copper ones of course, get set aside. I even made a 1000 gram weight of junk coins so I...
That is pretty cool. The only silver I found roll searching all this past year was a 1948 dime. lol Just cannot seem to find silver anywhere here...
I was told at a local branch that they always needed coins for customers. Last month, I bought $100 worth of cents for searching there. Now I...

Man, I dumped $100 worth last week. Now I am going to weigh everything. A friend uses a popsicle stick glued to a piece of the barrel of a...
Another major problem with coins is the cost of handling them incurred by banks. Banks hate coins with a passion and of course they pressure our...
You know there are all kinds of people who shop eBay. I have a brother-ibn-law who only buys "free-shipping". He doesn;t understand that either...
It probably won't take nearly that long to become a "cashless" society. Everything points in that direction as the governing bodies find it so...
Agree that most of the time nickles sell for less than melt value. A regular nickel has about 6c worth of metals in it, but we transact with it as...
Yes, but if you open them up some of the clads are getting hard to find, like the 71 P.
Send it to CONECA for authentication. That costs $5 + shipping. If it is authentic, then have it forwarded to ANACS for grading. Likely about $28...
Good luck, but don't get disappointed if it proves difficult. I searched an entire box of dimes $250 and another $120 in quarters last week and...
