Right . . . but we can't really compare until LP-2 sells out, can we?
One can "credit card" everything, and still live within one's means. That's what my wife and I do -- simply because we get a 1% cash rebate on...
Exactly. Further, the Mint was probably pressured to do so. That happens a lot around these parts (I work in DC). That's why I cringe when I...
OK, with proofs and commemoratives, we can get coins with really low mintages. Let me create a sub-category: What US coin do you own, and...
I read somewhere that Roosevelt hated Barber's coins so much he was going to have introduced a bill to remove the motto of "In God we Trust"...
Good one! I had a similar response to someone who was trying to explain to me that the dollar coins are no good because he can't make night-time...
But it's more than common sense, imho. It's basic knowledge, and a whole lotta people (casheirs, and, apparently, many of their managers) don't...
I'm seeing something different than you guys are. I just tried it on another computer. Nothing at all different from what it said yesterday on...
What's the URL of that text? I'm clearing my internal browser buffer, but I stlll don't see that . . .

Huh? Where are you getting that info from? When I click on 2009 Lincoln Cent Two-Roll Set “Formative Years” (LP2) it just gives the June 2...
Sorry -- (sigh, once again) -- those are Mr Pitney and Mr Bowes :whistle: ;)
Yeah, but do you have a quick and easy phrase/quip to help remember what you just said? ;)
There's a good chance they were forced to go with the low bidder. That happens often around these parts . . . (note: I work in DC)
"Shouldn't have to" has nothing to do with it. Besides . . . They work, at probably low pay, with lots of people complaining at them all day...
The way I remember it when I was first learning: 1970: Low Seven = Large Date
Well . . . the rule I followed was not to ask any favors until _after_ establishing a relationship. As I've related in other threads, I tried to...
Your local bank has them?!?
Don't blame the Mint on this one . . . The Mint, as I understand it, has little to do with this -- it's their private contractor, Pitney Bowes,...
