Let's hope is does not promote tarnish which some of the mint packaging has done in the past. But, yes, the coins and the packaging are quite...
I received my set yesterday also. It's very nice set with no spots or any problems. I am not a big fan of reverse Proofs. I don't think that...
You could go for just one coin, not the whole set.
Maybe the Navy doesn't have the right "enough pull" in Congress. I've read the McArthur bullied Admiral Nimitz quite abit during World War II....
I have a date run from 1942 to date, but they have really fallen out of favor. My fingers itch to go forward from 1936 (I have that set.), but my...
Most of the time if it is in an NGC or PCGS holder, leave it there. Even if the grade is wrong, the holder keeps non-collectors from dipping,...
