Here you go...now you have: [ATTACH] Guy
The ones I mostly deal with were wealthy before they were coin dealers and are selling coins as something to keep them busy in their retirement...
Sorry Doc. I just touched on it, so you could fill in the blanks. Guy
You have to realize that even when they were making $500 and $1000 notes, it wasn't for general commerce. People didn't have them in their wallets...
Barber may have been competent in so far as his basic skill was concerned, but his eye was too Federalist for my liking. Then again, the next...
If I collected modern coins, I'd say everything circulating today is pretty bad. As for our so-called classic coins, I've always detested the...
Coins minted for circulation? I can think of none. Coins like the 1913 nickel were not authorized mintages. Coins like the 1943 bronze cent were...
While I agree with this statement, there is another aspect to the grading done by TPG's that always seems to be ignored, even by the older...
Thats what I would consider rare. No US coin minted for circulation meets those criteria, but a lot of tokens do. I have dozens that are R-5 and...

If you like it then you did good, regardless of what greysheet or anyone says. We've ALL paid higher prices than we had to for coins we really...
Not a bad piece. Of course, dealers will pay the $100 price we see on Heritage and then sell it at $300, which accounts for the difference, so I'd...
I have you both beat....I seal all my coins in carbonite and store them in my lockbox aboard the space station. Guy
But he did- under the name Kennedyhalf. Guy
Rip Van Winkle. Oh, you meant coins I presume. There are whole series of US coins I think are sleepers, like the Barber and seated Liberty dimes,...
