What should I expect to pay for common business strike Ike's in uncirculated condition?
Not that I know of. I did give a Brown Ike a bath in the same container but not at the same time.
The screwy thing is the coin didn't look too bad until I actetoned it. I still can't figure out what happened. If it was cellophane and not PVC...

Don't mean to Highjack the thread but after reading the first few pages some questions came to mind. How do you make transactions with other...
