I'm a freshman in college with a part time job, so my budget for coins is quite small. I collect because I like it. When you can look at a coin...
I'e never used a grading company yet but everyone here says the big 3 are PCGS, IGC, And NGC. Most others are regarded as low end or inconsistent....
Depends on how valuable. Some people are not comfortable in posting thousands of dollars worth of coins. I just started out so I don't have...
Are those slabbed? If not, just wondering why you would sell them since they won't take up any space. Unless you just really don't want them of...
Well I graduated high school last year so my age would be close to his, and as a new collector right now I am doing what a few others have said. I...
Very, very worn. Thats pretty crazy though because the only Lincoln cent I have that looks that worn is a 1910. A whole 54 years older than yours,...
Only Mods can close threads? :scratch:
Just looking through Redbook they list 1891, 1891CC, 1891O, and 1891S, so unfortunately you have a basic Morgan dollar. There is no significance...

Well put it this way. I'm a freshman in college with a job that pays a little over minimum wage. On top of that I am a beginning collector,, so I...
Title should explain it, but I see alot of references to the greysheet and I was wondering if it is the same/similar/better than the Redbook. I...
I've got hundreds of '98-2000's that I've sorted out from the giant piggy bank I have. Still not done pullin them out but once I am......jeez I...
