And even $0.02 is worth less these days! (Speaking of which -- is anybody else around here old enough to remember when the "cents" sign existed...
I'm still somewhat skeptical of this argument. Surely inflation played a part in this, too. Kids used to be paid a half-dollar to cut a lawn or...
I guess I would like to just dip a toe in . . . so I'm looking for a "starter" book here.
OK, I may have caught the bug (as I seem to have accidentally purchased a Type-B 1961 Quarter -- a variety I never knew existed until the day...
That's a good point, and I wish people would consider it more. In fact, just last night, someone gave me 200 wheaties that his relative had been...
Nice going! If I were to complete a subset of cents, my next step would be to have everything from 1934 and on, as you can get anything since...
... and (for the OT's information): some people use shorthand and just call it: "LP2" or "Type 2".
Unsearched. Then how does he know they are all wheaties?

If you're looking for advice . . .it totally depends on what market you're in. Obviously . . . the more expensive the coin is, the more you'll...
I hereby nominate this as the funniest post I've read thus far today. (OTOH, it's only 9:30am ET!)
Yikes . . . confident and accurate in my grading? Not!! I don't _think_ it's proof (it's not mirror-like at all). I'll try to scan it tonight...
Holy Moley! I got one! This is unbelievable . . . I'm so new at collecting some stuff that I didn't even _have_ a 1962 quarter. So I picked up...
Fascinating! I've found, continually, that the stuff I sell (I almost only sell for auctions that end on Thrs thru Mon), Thrs stuff got the...
I agree with almost everything that's been written here -- good pix, good return policy, immediate shipping, super customer service (to keep...
But, but, but . . . OK, I understand what everybody is saying. And it makes a lot of sense. But, then, why do I keep seeing things like this:...
Nice Set! I've been thinking of getting into Type Sets myself . . . sometimes it's fun to look at a complete series, but sometimes it's boring...
To finish off the episode . . . while I was deciding whether or not to bid on it, the price started reaching what I thought was not a bargain and...
Question: has anyone ever tried calling the police or the feds on a repeat offender? If not, why not?
Oh, puleeze -- comparing "puffery" with selling "rare gold-plated wheat cents" ?
