I've never worked on Peace as a set, but I did need a 1928 issue for a set in honor of my mother's birth year. BTW today is her birthday ! She...
Well, I completed that hand-picked 1961 proof set ! Last piece was a PR68 Cameo Jefferson. Not a lot of cameo nickels. I shopped quite a few....
I agree based upon what little we can tell from that scan... but the photo is inconclusive.

Maybe 50+ wheats and 25 or so buffalo nickels... all from when I was a kid. I gonna give one stash to my nephew and the other to my niece as a...
NGC certifies coins with the Redfield pedigree....
I gotta agree with the AU camp on this one. The image indicates lustre breaks on the upper cheek near the ear and hair, and lower neck near the...

Yo. Buffalos. The verdict is clear : DO NOT CRACK 'EM. The truth is they are MUCH MORE LIQUID IF SLABBED. My heirs know the value of the...
Clearly this "3-inch-square block of plastic" is not a cube; it is a PCGS or NGC slab. This article is from a non-numismatist writing for other...
The "tamper proof sticker" isn't tamper proof. The integrity of TPGs depends on the integrity of the physical slab itself. It seems much easier...
Welcome to the board ! No, it won't be devalued a great deal. 1898 is a common date. Grade wise... well, it's a little hard to tell, but that...
Awwright... I'll see your $7 and raise ya my 1822 half eagle. SGS sez it's genuine.
I saw a story about an 1894-S dime several years ago, and it resparked my interest in collecting. I'm not sure why Big Media publishes rare coin...
