If only they made it easier to follow the law. Like, for example, by having a uniform policy across the country, instead of a patchwork across...
Those weights check out, given the wear on the coins. If they were silver-plated brass or copper, they'd be a good bit lighter, or else thicker....
"Grandad had a bunch of these shiny ones in plastic holders, will you take these?"
I'm not sure they're fake. Coins put into those displays are often polished to death first, and it looks like that happened to these. The...
I've always heard that rare world coins (PM or not) trade at a lower premium than US coins due to lower demand. Do you see this changing? If not,...
But would you take up gambling? Because that's what this is. "Grab bag" or "luck of the draw" offers always make me suspicious, because I almost...

Any idea why? Wonder if they're trying to pocket it?
They do bother me, but I'm willing to consider the possibility that that's a me problem. :rolleyes: I think my problem isn't so much that these...
Hmm... wonder how common 1944 cents struck on silver are? Could be the "Poor Man's 1944 Steel Cent". OK, maybe the "Moderately Well-Off Man's..."
