D'oh. There's nothing wrong with #23. I misread the question.
Very nice though I don't know who was on the Sicilian coin. #16 is really 1mil since these were issued by states as tax tokens and #23...
The penny makes a great collectible and it would hurt collectors if it were withdrawn because prices would increase as attention was drawn to the...
If people were charged a tax for actual costs of mining, minting, and minding the pennies every time they used them the tax would be more than...
Jeeze. Apparently things are changing with the moderns faster than I can keep up. I was thumbing through my 2005 Krause yesterday and saw that...
CW means the second hubbing is clock wise from the first. Or the die was hubbed and then was hubbed again CW was the initial one. The secondary...
Apparently you're right about the existence of a DDR '74 issue. Do any of your coins conform to their description?...
I'm not familiar with this one and Wiles doesn't list it in "The Kennedy Half Dollar Book". Are you certain it's a true DDR? If it is then...
The Redbook never even tried to keep up with moderns until the 2006 edition. The prices for almost all of these were just based on face value....
The first states coins weren't saved in the kind of quantity that the later ones were. There were millions saved but like many later date coins...

Thank you. It is definitely NOT BU, but that's as much as I can tell. It is circulated, but in what I would call...
I'll be darned. That looks like a contemporary counterfeit. Indeed, it looks like they looked for some nice gems to help with the deception so...
I suppose it must be a counterfeit. I've never seen a counterfeit of these very inexpensive sets.
It was probably substituted. If you look closely you'll likely see a split in the plastic which allowed someone to swap it.
Smullen; You have the right idea that collecting is for fun rather than to make a profit but I personally have more fun when I think something is...
Bags of the old silver dollars would be much easier to find in BU (or circ) and would have a good chance at appreciation. They'll cost a lot...
There were also reportedly six proof sets made in Phiadelphia with the type I Ike in 1975. These didn't bear mint marks and none of the coins are...
There were also two different types of the Ikes issued in BU and Proof. These are the type I and type II. The changeover happened in mid 1975...
