It may be sneaky but if you think about it, the mint gains nothing from it unless collectors find it interesting. Indeed, all the extra work to...
Good luck, though it doesn't sound like you'll need it.
There are lots of proofs in circulation. These are encountered quite regularly. If you pay attention to the differences between the price of...
This sounds like a safe bet except their production limit could be well under the demand. These are massive sets and apparently are a little...
There are several things that can cause each of the conditions you describe but the most likely candidate for the wet feeling is a mercury...

I was referring mostly to the older aluminum issues, especially those from the 1950's and '60's. I know some of these are quite common in typical...
Modern Indian coins could have explosive price gains over the next couple of decades. Like most coins from the latter half of the 20th...
