I was reading an article in a magazine a while ago, and the author was guessing what the grades of the coins might be. I was just under the...
I think it's worth the effort to wait for the cents to come out in circulation. Even if it is an off year with low production numbers such as last...
I could see how they may be a potential gift idea if they were in the price range you were going to spend. I could see a child receiving one as a...
The automotive industry uses gold in Air Bag systems for this same reason. Many instructors in classes on Air Bags claimed it was because gold is...
I think this a rather neat find! I usually set aside the San Frans I still find in circulation, which seem to be fewer and fewer as time goes on.
If they are 2009 Kennedys, they are very sellable at a premium. You won't get rich, but there are plenty of people who just want a coin from each...
Smart move, Coinman. When I'm ready to finally take the plunge, I will be doing exactly the same.
This sounds like something my (millionaire) boss would do. :D

This sounds about as good as anyone could word it. Somehow they made it into a cashiers hands, and exchanged in a completely legal transaction....
Do you have a source for that fact? I read that silver was the best conductor probably twenty years ago, and everyone has been correcting me ever...
I think that if these have a low premium over spot, they will be a hit for bullion purposes only. If they expect to get a hefty premium, I really...
I have to admit I also collect (or should I say hoard) copper cents. I have done it for a few years, and now it is about all I really can afford...
I have no real reason to suspect either is counterfeit, but the Chinese are pretty much making fakes of everything these days. I would get an...
If you can, try to post a better picture if you can. From your pic, I'd say it's not a proof, but a close up with less glare would clear up any doubt.
I think that in a curio cabinet you may have a better environment than many people store their coins. I think humidity mould be more harmful to a...
Yeah, I learned the crazy thing on Black Friday this year. Some people are like that all year long!!!:smile
