Thanks. I was actually kidding on the idea of finding one in circulation. I suppose one could accidentally be in with a roll of dimes somewhere...
Well, this is the one I picked out for my US type set. Originally I wanted to get an example that had luster but I found this one to be a bit...
I have to say I am very surprised by some of those prices GD. Thanks for posting them. I'm going to start looking on Heritage more often now....
Well I guess I will have to start paying more attention to Heritage. Though every time I'm looking for something, Heritage either doesn't have...
I have struggled with the same thing. Basically, I think some prices fluctuate enough to where you just go with a figure and call it good. Often...
Lets check some more actual examples from my own experiences. 2006 20th anniv. reverse proof ASE PF-69. Numismedia lists them at $222. I...
You pretty much proved the point I stated in my first post: "The higher the value, the deeper the discount that is usually found. Like a $400...
I have to agree with Ken. From what I understand, NGC's prices are for coins that are slabbed by them with a known grade assigned by them....
Probably depends on how large the collection is. The larger it is, the harder it will be to sell it all together. This question has come up many...

I have to say I like the Anaconda photo better. I think you did a great job capturing it as well but whatever they used to shoot it, really...
That 3 cent piece was probably a button for somebody back in the day. I also just bought my first silver 3 cent piece a couple days ago for the...
Great explanation there. The scarcity of the cleaned coin will also play a roll. One time I was watching a 1839-O quarter eagle in an NGC...
Yeah. And you didn't even go into the different lighting schemes sellers use. Anything from a blue light to give the impression that the coin...
That's a good question. IMO, you could hang onto the original folder just in case it would have extra value some day, and just get another one....
Have to agree! Got this at a show last month for the US Type set Intercept album. Looked over the whole show before settling on this MS-64....
Wow. You learn something every day. This is the first I've heard of the tissue test. I will definitely use it should the time come. I have...
This is exactly what they're doing. The whole reason Bernanke keeps saying "a little inflation would be good for the economy" is because money...
