Thanks for recognizing it @jom. I'm just a temporary custodian, but don't fret . . . I'll place her with an appreciative collector.
I edited after I realized the dumb nature of my question . . . The 90% would apply to more than just Kennedy halves.
Yes.
I do not place much stock in the claims of those who believe that hardness testing is conducted on planchets. The companies that manufacture...
I can vouch for the above values not being out of line for the Ike Dollars. I would eagerly pay $600 for a genuine 40% silver Ike planchet and...
