It sounds like what you're saying is that "everyone" has $3,000 to spend for rare Barbers but not everyone has lots of money to pay for high...
The buffalos were very attractive coins even after many years of circulation. These are the coins I started collecting in 1957. Most of the...
"Low mintage" is not going to make any regular issue modern valuable. The reason is that the mintages are simply far too high and even high...
You may well be right but I'm betting you're wrong. None of the regular issue clads of any denomination will be scarce or rare in unc, but...
I think people are going to be very surprised just how few of most dates of the clads will exist in unc. There weren't any rolls and bags...
There are a couple reasons. The biggest is that the government is trying to rend cash obsolete by inflating it out of existence. There are...
There are some major rarities from the '70's that are available only in pocket change. Some of the regular issues are pretty tough to find well...
Strike usually isn't much of an issue with silver Ikes in lower grades. Extremely weak strikes will show up in the eagle's feathers but...
These are graded a little tougher than the clads since they come nicer. The picture isn't good enough to really tell but my gut tells me that...
I dabble in collecting quite a few modern series by date/MM in Unc. Most of what I collect this way are older series and my favorite is the...
Wow!! This is a very underrated set. The Soviet government tried to discourage coin collecting because they felt it contributed nothing to the...
There's an '89-D/D. It's pretty obvious though.
The grading services publish data on the coins they grade. "POP" is short for population and is the number of coins they've graded to date.
You might consider keeping lightly circulated halfs if they are nicely struck and damage free of dates like '86, '82, '83, and the early '90's...
I'm pretty proud of my '82-NMM dime. It may be a die adjustment piece made before the weak strikes were produced. It has nearly razor sharp...
I think the cent and dime are vastly underrated. These may not be workhorse coins like they were long ago but they are still made every year and...
Perhaps he could have but these were made, issued, and released before he was president. The mint set Ikes are some of the most remarkable...
There is a very distinct difference between 1965 to 2004 sets and "current" 2005 to date sets. In 2005 the mint began chrome plating the...
GDJMSP nailed the proof sets and current mint sets. The older mint sets have a great deal of diversity from date to date and from coin to coin....
I guess many millions more coins will be hitting the melting pot. It's always kid of bitter sweet since I've saved uncirculated examples of...
