I think of the price jump as the "tyranny of numbers". Many times these mintages are simply astronomical but no one saved any. This means there...
It often seems Krause gets less accurate every year instead of more accurate.
These wholesale at only 90c a roll now but at one time in the early '80's they had a nice premium (~$2.25). They aren't common by the roll but...
The beauty of world coins is that you can get them cheap. The trick is to buy the cheap ones that will be worth more in the future. If...
Silver dollars were getting kind of pricey at $2 each by 1971. Thank goodness they didn't use real silver or these would be damaged and worn...
Cool. Those are really good grades for this date. I'd be inclined to hold onto a few of the finest for the long term.
Cool.
Mint sets in general are the best kept secrets in numismatics despite my efforts. They are not only the best source for Gems but in most cases...
Experience suggests AU slider and it was recently found in circulation. It was probably saved initially because of the poor die alignment and...
I believe my favorite coin is a full Gem 1969-P quarter. I've been looking for these since 1969 and have seen only about three that are full...
I like modern circulating coins in Unc a great deal. They are collectible in lower grades but they can be quite scarce in Unc and very little...
Wow. I'm #68. I didn't get my first PC until Sept of '01 and then I was slow finding the message boards for some reason. It's been a great...
That's a great '78-P.
I recommend SilverTowne in Winchester Indiana for similar reasons. They do sell from a store front and do cater to a wider array of customers but...
We need pennies to show future generations that we are wasteful and have no common sense whatsoever. Pennies are the symbol of the entire country...
That first coin has "the look". If there are any nice clean ones you might have something. Otherwise just look for clean and well made.
That was one very sweet roll. Most '71 Ikes look like garbage from across the room. If one of these is a Gem and not damaged by glue or...
That '78 is as nice as you are likely to find even if you search 1000 rolls.
This coin is hard to find this nice. It's not too tough in Unc but luster is usually subdued and even mint set coins tend to be marked. I...
For many dates "cameo" correlates closely to brand new dies. I think this is one of the reasons they are sought.
Separate names with a comma.
