Maybe this belongs in the bullion topic. Nothing I own is tied to the metal value, but I guess it's good for some and bad for others.
Since you asked what we think, I think it's practically useless to post a distant image of a screen showing a magnified image of one tiny area of...
I guess it was metric tons, not sure. They're all only 10% different from each other anyway so it doesn't really affect my point. There's a lot of...
I'm not sure if you missed my point or not. I asked how it could decide weak strike from wear, etc, and you responded that it "will be overcome...
Now look at it another way. The total minted weighs about 480,000 tons. The world mines about 20 million tons of copper per year. All the US...
That character limit speaks volumes, doesn't it. Give us as little information as possible so we can pretend we looked into it.
But if someone is expert enough to do video and lighting adjustments specifically tailored to grading a coin, they could just grade the coin...
Mine knows that I'm into it but she has never really said anything. I'm pretty sure deep down she thinks collecting "old money" is stupid. Why on...
I spent a few years in NE Iowa during my younger days. Effigy Mounds is a special place in a beautiful corner of the country, so that's probably a...

There's another thread on this. https://www.cointalk.com/threads/1794-dollar-us-mint-medal.414468/
The OP example appears to be fairly well-circulated. Were they using these as money?
I'll also point out that a lot of people are confused about what "mint packaging" is, so post an image of an example roll so someone can verify....
Go to the grading websites? ANACS costs $14/coin plus return shipping and any other services you request, for US post-1950. You could submit at a...
Technically you should call it circulation cameo, since circulated cameo implies that it was an actual cameo that got circulated. But no big deal...
I've learned to take decent photos with the iPhone but nowhere near the quality of the pros on here. It was a pain to see or image the coin in the...
I'm enjoying my prize from the recent @lordmarcovan giveaway. Since that thread is locked, I thought I would post a separate one. New photos out...
Fabulous find, obviously. I'm also interested by the number of bullets you seem to find. Could be the result of just about anything I suppose.
Are you perceiving a planchet flaw above FDR's ear? There's so much road rash around it that I think it's only damage, and the dark stain is...
Separate names with a comma.
