The entire series of proof sets is extremelyy low right now along with mint sets and commems. Now is a good time to buy if you are collecting...
The only thing I would do is get a professional opinion if it is authentic. Ebay is a good place for people to sell counterfeits. Not to be...
If it makes you feel any better, I'll go out and buy one. I've been thinking about it anyway!:)
The proofs might all be 95% copper, but we'll have to wait and see. Then again, I suspect a satin finish version will show up in mint sets. Either...
I can't immagine being the person at the checkout at Wally-World. I like to think of myself as honest, but there could have been a deal worked out...
Many times on ebay I see people paying way more than Red Book prices on commems. I've had days when I've bid fair market prices on a dozen modern...
I'd like to see an authentification service. They could charge a more reasonable price than the TPG's to just verify the coin is an authentic,...
If the current mintage trend continues, these sets as well as the mint sets may be a descent investment. It's a better gamble than the stock...
I would pick out the gems and keep an eye out for silver ones (1964-70), and spend the rest wherever you can. People say they don't circulate....
I'm just glad they keep making them. I've always been partial to half dollars, no matter which design. Many complain that the mint keeps producing...
I'd settle for a limited production cent sold exclusively through the mint at a small premium, kind of like they've been doing with the Kennedy...
I collect the modern commems because I like the designs, not for the investment. Most of the olympic commems are rather dull in design, so I steer...
If you feel like parting with a couple of those level 7's, please let us know!
Sorry, I couldn't resist. I used to call cents pennies before I joined CT.I'm over it now, but still have the habit of correcting others.:p
I would send all of the"pennies" back to their home country of England.
A very similar situation was the case with the first modern commemorative. The mint produced so darn many '82 Washington halves that many were...
I'm really amused how all these years I've been referring the cent as a penny. I'll blame my parents on that one. Then at work, I would fill the...
It's not the kind of news a person wants to read about in the paper. It's unfortunate, these hard economic times bring out the worst in some people.
I'm not a fan of problem coins. But I'd settle for a cleaned coin over a counterfeit any day. I really wish someone at ebay would police fakes a...
Yes, you'd think it would be common sense. Many sellers claim they are not an expert on coins, and prove it time and time again.:o
