If the machine takes things without crediting then it's stealing. If it were only Ikes I still wouldn't approve but the sign does provide some...
With the bump for being a very tough date I'd call it gemmy. I'd be slightly surprised if it got graded MS-65 though. It might make it with...
It's no more far-fetched than an internal "rejection" bin. It is exactly equivalent if it takes a morgan and doesn't credit you $1. Most...
If I present a pile of morgan dollars to a bank teller and she puts them in her purse and then says she doesn't recognize these because they are...
Don't overpay. World coins are graded to stricter standards and Krause overprices some. Just because a coin is beautiful, rare, and lustrous...
This is about the size of it. The machine isn't rejecting a coin if it retains it so it is not a reject bin. It is a theft bin. But it's...
The way collectors collect is undergoing some change as well. Where it wasa once primarily date and mint mark collecting there are lots of theme...
Coins from Hong Kong have been doing quite well in recent years too. Very few of these are very tough even in superb gem but none are extremely...
A lot of moderns are irresistable to sell. When profits average a few thousand percent the natural impulse is to sell. Indeed, I'd even...
Some of Denver's circulation strikes are so perfect that they already look like branch mint proofs. I do agree that they will probably have a...
You may well be right but enough were made that everybody could have eight of them and relatively few people I know have any at all. A lot will...
It was inflation that was the primary killer of the half dollar. In the early '60's and right up till around 1968 you needed nickels and dimes...
I'm glad to see them going after the counterfeiters.
All else is never really equal. But just to play along in the example you gave the unc will "always" win out over a circ. People simply want...
To each his own. Quality os great and quantity is great as well. For me personally it's more and more about rarity and completeness than it is...
It's been repaired though. ;)
With a little searching you can find nice attractive mint set coins for next to nothing (a couple bucks). Many of these will grade MS-64 and with...
I would suggest nice attractive examples of all the BU Ikes. If you look at a few of each date you'll see all Ikes are not created equal and all...
I don't believe they really do anything shady. I wouldn't advise anyone except beginning collectors to buy from them because their prices aren't...
The best bet for cheap with Jeffersons is to look for nice gemmy coins from new dies but have a little reverse marking. Of course what's cheap...
