D'oh. If you're talking about 1924 cents the mintage was only 75 million but these were saved by the roll and millions more were pulled out of...
Sure, but by the mid-60's all the dated buffalo nickels were gone except for a few culls of '26 to '38 dates. Most of the older buffs were in...
Of course those coins were only twenty or twenty five years old at the time. Now we regularly get 50 and 75 year old coins in change.
Do you think it's possible that Muller Brass merely produced the bronze strip or punched the planchets that were struck in Yeadon? Perhaps...
Interesting. I had assumed they were all made in (Yeadon) Franklin, PA. The presidential bronze sets and the antique car coin series sets were...
Way cool. I'm impressed that the original specimen actually saw some circulation.
I checked my '68 proofs recently and didn't find anything very special; just the common reverses.
These are all fairly low mintage. They weren't so hard to find in circulation back in 1973 because they comprised a fairly significant...
The early clad type "b's and the later type "d's are far far scarcer than the old silver type "b's especially in high grade. The clad can be...
Yes, those are all type "d's. The '79 is the toughest of these dates after '78 and account for about 5% of mintage, the '80 is around 12% and...
The relief is a little lower on the type "d". The second best PUP is the shape of the cross bar on the "Q" of "QUARTER". These are much more...
It is what it's purported to be and from the '20's or a little earlier. These are generally very inexpensive though.
Way cool. I was interested in these even before Richard Feynman made a trip over there. It's still a highly inaccessible place.
I don't believe that's the valuable proof and if I saw it in hand I believe I'd be certain it is not. But I can't rule out that it is the...
As a US company they might be required to abide by US law even overseas.
I like this set a lot. It also has good long term potential. For the long term you might consider busting up the set and stabilizing the coins...
It's a proof set. I had believed these were stable packaging but it looks like the cu/ ni is tarnishing. Tarnishing seems to be simply sped...
I suspect eBay is simply confused. There is a trade embargo in effect but once items are in the country I don't believe they are illegal. If you...
Most of the former can't be opened and reclosed properly. If I recall they are glued or sonically sealed. Frequently they can be opened with...
I'm a big fan of the Romanian coinage and prices have been escalating markedly in the last several years. The biggest gains of a hundred to two...
