Aw man, that S-10 Wreath Cent... :eek: YOU'RE KILLIN' ME, DAWG !!!! :rolleyes:
Outstanding ! One of the awesome things about the Huzak catalog is the amount of verbal info provided for each and every coin. Each coin has an...
Good point. Interesting thread. I think some of these things happened because it's difficult to "think backwards", which is what someone is...
Not so. The dollar has strengthened greatly in the last several months vs. euro, British pound, and Canadian dollar. The finance market fiasco...
