Pardon my ignorance, but what is a "sample dollar"? Are these like promotional items to be given out by a coin dealer?
The legislation mandating removal of the edge inscription was flawed in many ways according to Ed Moy, the director of the mint. I think the main...
I can understand locking the store, especially if there's only one person there. My pet peeve is coin stores that aren't open during their posted...
I find this reply suspicious. It's WAY too much information to reveal to a stranger on eBay.
I've seen them, too. They also imply that the dollars are in limited quantities and that time is running out for them. They pulled the same crap...
Great story, but I wonder if it isn't just a made-up story to create some interest for the auctions. If not, I don't see why this woman has...
This will be more of an issue when the limit is one coin than when it was 5. However, I'm sure there will be plenty of employees who either don't...

Thanks. That's kind of what I concluded. Fortunately, I have an honest dealer. I was able to get off to a good start. He sold me a Whitman album...
It just seems to me that the words "reverse proof" will spark a stampede.
This discussion raises a question for me. If many of the Lincoln cents are worth fairly small amounts of money (less than a dollar) it doesn't...
There's no question the prices have come down, but I don't see any indication that they'll sell for less than issue price. The prices shown still...
But Washington Quarters don't have denticles. Are you saying those were carved by hand?
"Rim Ding" sounds like a snack cake. Like "Little Debbie's Rim Dings"
My favorites are Mississippi and Oregon [IMG] [IMG]
Any potential confusion with PCGS is strictly intentional.
The next issue will be interesting because there are two competing effects. The drop in price of the first two issues will hopefully temper...
I have a couple of sets (all 4 coins) to sell. It seems to me that "complete" sets are selling for a premium over the individuals. I think we're...
Separate names with a comma.
