I think Conder hit on everything nicely. The earlier coppers, like he said, pretty much all have issues, and some the finest grades known are VG...
I'd say it's demand. Look at the 09S VDB cent or the 16D dime...neither rare at all and both saved from day one, yet demand has pushed their value...
Thats not true. Try paying for a car in cash and see what happens. They won't accept it, as a business. Transactions under 10K are ok, but there...
I agree. 10K is really not a lot of money to begin with. You can't even buy a cheap car for that, much less a house. So to say criminals are the...
I was being sarcastic since the subject ventured down the road of privacy and such. But yes, I'd hope most people would be opposed to a chip...
It may also be pointed out that a large group of countries use the US dollar as it's currency as well. Even countries that have a currency of...
Maybe someday we'll all be equipped with AI chip implants so that we just swipe an arm to make a purchase, or have a reader gather all of our...
I bet she consults you from now on before selling any coins. That must have been a nice surprise for her to get that much more out of a single...
I probably wouldn't change a thing from how I collect now. When I first started ,however, I was more into silver. Now I'm more into old copper, so...
Like Mark said, you have plenty of time to find yourself venturing down those paths (hopefully anyways). I have a lot of series I don't have any...
For perhaps the first time ever, I have to agree with you. LOL I thought this was pretty common knowledge as well :D Guy
Wait...didn't you just say most Americans want the dollar bill? I'm confused. Guy
I agree with Chris, gbroke. It's hard to say for certain if they are real. I was just giving an opinion based on the assumption they are real. Guy
There was a reason for that and it had nothing to do with demand or the market. Manipulating the price of a good is not a rung in it's ladder...
Popular how? I don't recall a poll being taken. Everyone complains a dollar is worthless now, so why not get rid of it? The same people who...
Was it the one floating in your soup, or another one? Guy
Though I'm all for doing away with one dollar bills, I have to ask why they always revert to the "It'll save billions" remark. It doesn't cost a...
Look real to me. All common halves you could buy at from most dealers or shows for $100 or less. Still, some nice coins to have. Guy
Wow, a 14-D! All I ever find is washers and rust. Guy
That was where the part about those peers sharing the knowledge of their hobby I posted come in. We start out like the first one in "liking old...
