Yes, I am an advanced collector, but no, I don't know all of the answers. I have learned many things on this forum. I think that the approach to...
I purchased this coin a number of years ago in a Heritage auction. I saw that there was something strange about the "ED" in "STATES" but bought...
The whole picture is weird because we all known that the devices on these coins are into the surface. Those photos make them look like they are...
I just read in "Coin World" that the mint is thinking about makings these new Morgan Dollars an annual issue. If they are able to add them as an...
The claim is the money earned is going to support a law enforcement memorial and museum. Given the issue price, I'm not sure how many of these...

Here is another one from the Dahlonega Mint, the 1839-D Classic Head Quarter Eagle. [ATTACH]
There is a product limit for the three piece set of 10,000. I don't know if they will hit that number or not. You might consider ordering it...
Blame this mint director who is "collector hostile" in my opinion. He puts out polls asking "How am I doing?" now and then. If I get one I'd give...
The Proofs are a bit sharper with more detail on the buffalo's cape and coat. The experts also claim that "LIBERTY" is sharper, but I have not...
