The amazing thing about the token in the OP is that the die held together long enough to make so many pieces. That is nothing rare about it all....
The presentation supplied everything by pictures. He might have added the that the really sophisticated guys put reeded edges on the coins....
It really depends upon what the 1909-S-VDB would be worth certified. The coin is not rare at all, and most collectors would rather have a no...
I would wait to buy a better one, if it's in your budget. These tokens come nice. [ATTACH] Here is another one with silver plating. [ATTACH]...
You are paying for color on that coin. I think that's foolish, but each to their own. I wouldn't be bailing them out of that purchase.
[ATTACH] Here is a 1938-D Buffalo Nickel I bought a couple years ago. It's in an NGC "fatty" MS-66 holder. It has a couple more marks, but it...
I got burned on the Gold CAC thing when it first started. Never again! If the coin is in an MS-65 holder, but is really an MS-66, it’s worth MS-66...
Profits from the modern commemorative coins go to the national entities that get the benefits from bills passed by Congress and signed by the...
I dream about buying coins or trying to put a value on something in my dreams, but try as I might, I never bring anything back with me. :)
It was. The 1982 Washington commemorative half dollar was 90% silver, as the Bill of Rights Half Dollar, which featured Madison. All of the rest...
As some of you know, I collect political items also. Here are a few pieces that I have. My late in-laws received this small medal when they...
I have long admired the design on the Statue of Liberty commemorative half dollar. The only disappointing thing is that it's not made of silver.
I have two of these pieces. This one ended up in an NGC holder before I bought it. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Then I ended up with a second...
Since modern mints will make anything for a buck or a pound, I suppose the royal mint will issue one, but I won’t buy it.
Given what I had to pay it, it will never be a money maker for me. High grade early copper is closely held and expensive. According to the picking...
Here is the best early half cent I have. It is a 1795 C-1 stuck on a thick planchet with the lettered edge. [ATTACH] This 1835 Half Cent is my...
I had one chance to own an 1802 C-1, "old reverse" half cent. A dealer friend of mine put together an outstanding set of half cents. No one knew...
It's funny how the prices for 1949 Franklin Half Dollars go up and down. This used to be an expensive coin and was once the "king of the series."...
American Revolutionary War, 1776. [ATTACH]
I have understood that finding the 1857 with mint red is difficult. Is that what you are having trouble finding. I've had this one for many years....
