I hate to burst you all's bubbles but Ebay probably will never spend much time reading this, or any other forum. They are very close-lipped...

Checked the site and found no pieces of Pieces of Eight. There was a single 2 Reale that had about 1/6 sliced off of an edge but that's it. I'll...

There are exactly TWO 1974 aluminum cents that have published photographs. The slabbed Toven example, is one and the Smithsonian's example as...

How about one with doubling in the bars-and-balls around the inner rim? [IMG]
I stand corrected, partially. J.H. Cline, in his Standing Liberty Quarters says six were made. Walter Breen admits to having seen seven...
These digital microscopes are fun and handy in their own way but my experience has shown them to be a complete waste of money. The ONLY...
