I think we had a case of mistaken identity. It wasn't Jesus, It was Osama.
Am I the only one who cringes every time I see them messing with the coins? Gold plating and painting is just marginally better than cutting them...
I'm going to sell come circulated common date Gold US coins to feed my copper habit. I know the Double Eagles have about $1100 bullion value and...
I gather you're a fan of the P. T. Barnum approach. All's fair as long as it's legal. Otherwise just take advantage of the suckers. It's their own...
This leads to a significant question. Is it wrong for people to take advantage of peoples ignorance to get their money or are they fair game and...
I think many of us have a similar story. Mine is an AU 1917 Liberty Standing quarter that I hid from potential thieves...and myself about forty...
I suppose this should come as a relief to me since it is a coin in which I LOST to another bidder at the last moment. I was able to speak to the...
While I'm happy that you have this nice coin, just don't forget to check the 'third' side of the coin for edge lettering and in this case coin...

The handling saved you. It is often the point of profit on TV adds. Lifetime guarantee on inexpensive items usually means the item costs less than...
I'm an old fogy. I still use Lotus and I still use some of the old DOS commands, even though I have the newer point and click version. \WTB is...

OK. Now I'll tell you what I see. Bottom of M slightly above bottom of E vs slightly low to even on S-224. Right stem shorter than S-224....
Thanks a million for this reference. I believe it has enabled me to post what I needed. If you have any other suggestions concerning my post, just...
I will try to post several pictures and see if you have an opinion on whether the coins are from the same reverse die. I see several differences,...
Just an update. After looking at many S-231 images online, I am now convinced that this has to be an S-231 due to die breaks which are unusual and...
It looks like a D to me. I do live in an area dominated by the D mintmark though. I wonder if the variety collectors have some other place to look...
I suppose returning to the Large Cent is out of the question. My personal favorite design is the draped bust Lady Liberty.
I question whether you can legitimately call coins made just for mint sets and proofs business strikes. To me, the mints are becoming too much...
correction - it was my mint set, not proof set. By the way, how did the advertising suddenly appear on my post? I know I didn't out it there.
