It looks like 2x2's will be the method unless someone comes along with a better idea. Less expensive too. I'll just have to be neater about...
Something that I'll keep in mind. I don't think the thickness factor will occur often, if at all. But this is worth remembering.
Yes! Very good observation. I had forgotten about those difficulties.
Nice idea but WAY too expensive, particularly for coins that catalog for less than one of the slabs cost. I may consider them for some of the more...
In order to better document the coins in my collection I intend to take pictures of them all. Everything from the most expensive to the cheapest....
Not in my interest area. I have several other coins that I could use that amount of money on.
Time ... and unaltered key coins (the best you can afford). That's my key to hoping I break even or make a profit collecting coins. I've got an...
I avoid the problem by not being a member of Instagram, Facebook or any other sites like that. It may be the "ostrich" approach but I already...
My guess is about 7,000; 3,500 for each side. But I believe that the anvil die (the one fixed in place) often lasts longer than the hammer die....

I don't think it's a coin; I think it's a token. It has nothing on it that looks like a date nor a country name. I like the "Pachinko" guess and I...
There are so many coins/medals/commemoratives being issued around the world that have little or no meaning except to raise money to line the...
Thanks for taking a look. That's the coin with the curved CENTAVOS. It's the one I have. The ones I'm trying to figure out the varieties of are...
Okay, as best I can tell, this is my current status based on the Krause catalog: Total 1941 Coins: 371 Coins Too Pricey: -29 My Complete Set:...
I have been working on my birth year (1941) set for quite a while. My only catalog is Krause 43rd Edition. I'm trying to ID my 1 centavo coin of...
I know notes used to be able to be split. I've seen it done. And if I know then there are others that know also. So someone could have split the...
Any coin that costs over $150 I won't touch unless it's slabbed by PCGS or NGC.
