I paid 2.25 at my local dealer. If cost is 1.98 I'm not opposed to paying that.. The one I bought also has a fairly dramatic (or atleast very...
Exact value I'm not sure. Someone on here said my cent is probably worth a few dollars. But my cent is also a wheat cent, so it is older and...
Well the plating isn't very thick anyways so you couldn't tell by looking at it (not sure why I asked that come to think of it ;)) . But if it...
Struck through grease. My avatar is Lincoln cent that is missing the last digit in the date due to this type of error.
The picture doen't really look copper, but I imagine it's different in hand. My guess is the planchet skipped its nickel plating.
Is it a little bit thinner than a normal one? It looks like this was an unplated planchet.

In terms of Silver Eagles, silver is the investment so if someone is only looking for silver, they wouldn't want to pay for a high grade coin, in...
I'm not sure if you got confused and flip flopped the two, but proofs are definately WAY less.
That may be true about the Redbook, I'm not actually sure. (I've only bought one and it was after the year had started already) That is the...

You should really pick up a 2011 Redbook since 2012 is a ways off. They can be found for around $9 on certain websites, and just by looking...
They are two seperate things. Everything could be exactly the same; date, numerical grade, etc. but one is a proof. A completely different type of...
EDIT: Beat me too it..
That's how I felt the first time I went to a local dealer. I saw a 1922 no D Lincoln and he showed me 2 PCGS 3 legged Buffalos. They don't hold a...
Anyone here use the axial lighting setup? (With a piece of glass that is used to bounce the light instead of directly lighting the coin.) I've...
Probably an obvious answer that I'm over thinking, or right on, but is mint variance basically the allowable degree of rotation that can be...
It was just a dream. ;) If he was attacked by evil wizard pirates, a 1916 Washington Quarter suddenly doesn't seem so odd. IMO
Truly the easiest and least expensive way to do it. This is how my State Quarter set is. 2x2's in binder pages and all. All of them are from...
