If the coin is genuine, it will command a small premium over melt value, but the surfaces of that coin lead me to believe that it may be a cast...
can we see both sides?
They made 125,000 of them. That is NOT rare. It's not even scarce.
all 3 posts in this thread... and I didn't even know that we crossed over a bridge...
I learned the story of why many drilled holes in their coins and it made me accept the practice better. I picked up a 1799 2 Reales with a hole...
The US Mint has said that this year there will be both an S Mint proof and a W Mint proof, just like last year. Also like last year they will be...
If Fred Weinberg says it's not an overdate, then that's pretty much good enough for me. Although people make mistakes, Fred has made his living...

That line says that when selling one, you should expect melt. In most cases, that's what you'll get. I'll turn your comment around and you tell...

ahh, low ball... I sit corrected. Thank you, sir
funny that you mention this... I was looking at the PCGS price guide yesterday and some coins are priced higher in PO-1 than in G. Everyman sets...
In all fairness, Richie, the OP said in post #1 "What would you do if you were in my position?" Doesn't that ask us to speak about what we feel...
Got my coin. I won't comment and spoil the surprise for the rest. (But I like it!) Thank you, Kasia! It was kind of you to run this contest!
A moral argument shouldn’t be complex. What’s right is right and what’s wrong is wrong. At times I have stood on my high horse and “virtue...
Why would the value be anything over belt? There are millions of 1964 Kennedy Halves in pristine condition. This coin is borderline AU/BU and...
