I have several vintage pocket watches. So when I saw the silver Round, I had to have it.
I just noticed this thread's title says Pretty coins. Is there a way to edit my old post?
"That's a silver Round, not a coin." [IMG]
In 1944 the U.S. Mint produced 25,000,000 Belgium 2 franc coins -- using the same zinc-coated steel planchet as the 1943 U.S. steel cent. Worth...
Funny, last year someone told me it's properly called a Lincoln cent. I guess the U.S. Mint missed that memo. :) And FWIW, this is a 6-year-old...
For comparison, my only gold coin is also a 1904 Double Eagle. I estimate my coin's Obverse is similar to the OP's coin. (The lighting hides some...
From an inside source, I heard that up to 10,000 "SHIFTING GEARS" will be distributed thru Apmex and JMBullion in 2016. But I doubt they'll be as...
Good post! I hadn't heard of the SuperLeaf 1.5 oz before. But the premium on Apmex seems excessive for a bullion coin:...
Save 'em if you like 'em. That's what my Mom did. Recently she gave me her "collection" -- 1,000's of unsorted circulated Lincoln cents. I...
I didn't know the baseball was design competition. Now I'm optimistic too.
Yes! Make it 1.5 or 2 oz silver. And as long as I'm dreaming, give it an antique finish: [MEDIA]
2016 Proof & Uncirculated American Silver Eagles will have an edge inscription. Release date? TBD. 2016 Bullion ASE's are available now (no edge...
Yes. The Centennial gold coins: http://www.coinnews.net/2015/11/12/us-mint-announces-centennial-gold-coins-for-2016/
I'd start with the FB "Short Set" (1940 - 1945): http://www.pcgs.com/SetRegistry/alltimeset.aspx?s=77980 Maybe-You-Already-Know: Later this year,...
How about a "new" pocket piece? Here's mine... [IMG] I bet there aren't many circulated silver Ikes. So it'll be super-rare! ;)
ANACS has a $10/each grading special right now: http://www.anacs.com/contentPages/Specials/DollarsandCents_Special1.aspx I submitted 19 Morgans...
I would buy neither of those coins. The Proof looks like it's got spots. But the description says "no spots". Pass. The Business, well, there...
Supposedly, silver-clad Ike dollars were made only at the San Francisco mint. But the 2015 Red Book says, "A few 1974-D and 1977-D dollars in...
I'm a big fan of air-tite capsules... [IMG] Available from many sources, like this: http://www.jpscorner.com/airtite-coin-holders.html
I bet the U.S. one-cent coin will soon be removed from circulation. Canada did this 3 years ago:...
