I'm not sure how to spot the micro D variety that's noted here. "Also obscure but of far greater potential is the single reverse die having the...
I picked up this silver real a while back & haven't been able to verify the attribution that the dealer had on it. He labeled it as a 1668...
I'd be interested. But probaby in the secondary market. Mint prices seem to be getting futher and furher out of step with market pricing.
Entry post. Came on the boards today to share some silver I found while cleaning an estate. These were mixed in with about CA$20 of spendable...
I think split grades are still fairly common for early American coppers due to the coin cabinet friction effect on so many of them. A G/VF is not...
I picked up a pair that arrived the other day. Apparently, the state treasurer got in trouble with the law for printing some on the side (at least...
Changed composition in 1964. And the design is largely unchanged since 1946. The nickel has had TJeff since 1938.

Could you elaborate, please? [As mentioned above, I'm looking for a definitive indicator before asking for my money back]
Yep. This is the first one I bought raw & the only reason I got it is the low placeholder bid I placed won. Debating returning it for my money...

Something odd going on with the mintmark as well. There is an S/CC variety listed in the Cherrypicker's guide, but it doesn't look like this. This...

This has been cleaned, but still has some lovely details and chopmarks. The fineness checked out on an induction tester, but I understand that...
If anything, rising unemployment and increased government spending are likely to push inflation upwards rather than crash the market. In...
Ms64+ When was this slabbed? Older holders can add a wild card to GTG, & I disagree with Lehigh96 - the standards have definitely changed a bit...
I guessed ms60. Few coins in this series were sharply struck. And very, very few saw any kind of commercial circulation.
I know there are some contrarian collectors who focus on lowest grade coins in capsules. I'm not sure what such collectors look for. If you are...
Hmm. Are most hoards of same dates/mint marks? It seems like many of the storied ones, like the Economite or Binion hoards, were accumulated over...
