The lighting makes them look a little scary but those are all in pretty good shape for their age. The '83-P is worth a couple bucks and I'm...
This is a coin that has been on my list for a long time. But, unfortunately it's one I haven't been able to find in quantity or otherwise. Of...
"with the bloom of the die" I believe some FDC's are considered Proof, some Unc, and some SMS dependent on the whims of collectors and...
The obverse of that 2F is simply stunning. Great picture too.
Swiss mint sets are exceeding high quality and can be mistaken for proof. But then the coins made for circulation are exceedingly high quality as...
That is a circ isn't it? Yes, nice coin. It looks like a Gem that has had a tough life starting even with the strike. I'd hang onto it since...
Now days I don't think they are nearly lenient enough to grade that a 67 in for '82's.
You can get more than 50 1965 quarters in a roll if you pull them from circulation today. Banks have a mild heart attack if you take back...
A boat floats on water despite being so heavy. A few coins will float on water as well because they are usually concave on one side or the other...
Most proofs of most dates are FS. A date like 1982 would be pretty tough to find without FS and the problem will be a mark rather than a bad...
That '65 is something!! They won't grade them as Full Step but even the SMS nickels are very tough in FS and someday there will be a demand for them.

The real problem is we waste entire factories by setting them up to make products that are no good for anything. And then we operate them so...
I didn't even think of finding a picture of it. Here's Variety Vista; [IMG] [img] and a link;...
You sound like me; consume little produce a lot. Big businesses don't appreciate this. They promote on the basis of nepotism and education...
Sorry, still can't tell. This variety is easy enough to see from the 10 o'clock position at a shallow angle and a light opposite. Once you see...
There is a '68 DDO dime with the date as the Pick Up Point. It is most easily seen from about the 10 o'clock position in the loop of the "6"....
A lot of we older collectors learned about coins with little resources because there was no internet and even the coin papers were few and far...
People didn't save moderns because of mintages. If collectors started saving AU '68-S nickels today in 50 years there would be more AU '15-S's...
I can't tell from the picture but I'm guessing it's tarnish and why the coin was just spent. Dirt accumulations can look like this in a photo...
