So, is it worth picking up or not? Whitman doesn't give much in the way of a description, so I've been waiting for someone to buy it and say one...
I don't know. I was collecting long before I was 30. If I worried as much as some folks here, I'm almost certain I would have died of a stroke...
LOL!! Right on, Carl, I like that answer the best. Live for the day and quit worrying so much about tomorrow. Guy~
I'm not going to say that a few people won't make money on coins as investments, but as a whole it's simply not going to happen. Being the oldest...
I love that line! So the double eagle was just going through prototype production in the 1970's when the Ike dollar was coming out? Amazing...
I used to keep mine in a Dansco, but the tan colored pages made the brown of the copper almost blend into the pages and made it hard to view them...
I'd say xf at best based on those pics. Looks like at some point someone also tried to clean that green crud off. Guy~
The linked coin looked good to me as well. What makes you think it's a fake? Guy~
It looks like some sort of casing on the reverse. Look at the double rims look on obverse as well as the tag sticking out. Looks like a jewelry...
I'm with Mark. I love the history. Always have been a big history person, not just with coins, but world history in general. Coins are just a...

I have a few, but no pics right now. A couple are CW patriotic tokens, the rest are hard times tokens from the Pittsburgh, PA area. Guy~
As of 2007 there were only 8 total graded MS 70, so I imagine it's registry set buyers bidding it up. Guy~
One of my latest. 57-D PCGS MS64. The pic is not good at all, but it's the best I could do with what I had at the moment. [IMG] Guy~

Find out where your wife buys coffee and then find out what bank they use and start buying rolls of dimes there. the chances are greater they...
Nice CC. Nothing wrong with a circulated piece. I bet that thing saw a lot of action in the saloons and brothels of nearby Virginia City, so it...
It wouldn't matter if the mint trimmed some expenses. As I've said 80 times here, taxpayer money doesn't go to the mint. It is a self sustaining...
The first thing I noticed was how intact the rims were and how unworn the lettering was compared to the bust portrait, which seemed a full 3-4...
