You'd get a better and faster responce with this question in a new thread. The pennies will be in good demand but might not get a good price...
If you buy a roll of sliders you can bet that many will be only AU or even less. Sliders are often sold as Uncs and most coins don't have such...
I've got lots of nice gemmy Canadian of the era that I couldn't even sell for half of melt when nickel got up over $30 per pound.
What most people don't know is that this same thing appeared in the distribution of mint sets up through the '70's because orders were filled by...
19Lyds got it right but it needs clarification. Mint set dies and circulation dies are distinct populations. Mint sets are specially prepared...
The envelope has no value at the current time. If these ever have value the glued ones willbe worth less because it is PMD. I would carefully...
Identifying countries gets pretty easy pretty fast. Some specific coins are much tougher. For example "Dansk" is always Denmark but not all...
It's mightily difficult to believe you got a Gem '83 quarter. Any BU at all wholesales for about $20 and Gems go much higher. Are you sure they...
Most quarters will show copper if you take off so much metal. Weigh it. It's probably PMD but I wouldn't go solely by the apparent damage.
No. But it looks like it has a good start on a rub. I'd go MS-66 but would want tosee it in hand. You'd need about 1500 made for...
These coins are much prettier than the average coin made for circulation. They were struck on presses that normally struck proofs and struck...
I used to have one on a better date 3c nickel but have never seen one on a scarce date of any coin.
I watch these shows to see what's selling. It's always a harbinger of what the wholesalers are going to be buying. Of course I love to see...
Metals are very rarely "separated" due to the extreme cost. Usually something like this will simply be used to make some sort of alloy and there...
I used to call some of the 1941-D'd 21 steppers because the top and bottom lines were visible as well as the steps on the outside. Some of the...
I very much look forward to your post. I think the mint might be closer than you think. Right now I'd estimate the half life of quarters minted...
If you can find any of the cu/ ni in Unc it would be wise to save them. They are much more elusive in my experience than the silver issues.
Great article. I really appreciate allthe stuff you've pictured and written about Korean coinage. Getting a good perspective on many foreign...
Beware that there are lots of AU and slider examples of this coin so the XF price might be overstated. No question Unc specimens are quite scarce.
I personally don't consider seeking an uncirculated example to be "conditional rarity". If we were talking about seeking Gems or superb Gems of...
