Thats true. I just got back from a coin show in Vegas and noticed that almost every table that had gold had $2.50 IH gold from $180 in EF and...
It may have been something from here: http://www.alaskamint.com/ If so, you may be out of luck as they don't seem to sell things from past years...
It's just scary because this person works in a casino of all places. If she were a kid flipping burgers or something that would be different...but...
Looks like the "One Cent" is repunched or something as well. It should have worn as evenly as the rest of the relief on the reverse. Guy~
Wow...you really don't know anything about US coins, apparently. 200 years of coins? Was that just an odd number or a guess, because it's not even...
Yes, it was bought. It's from a Mel Fisher store, so it was overpriced compared to many others you can buy. But, not many others come from a...
I used to have a pic in the Gallery section, which has gone missing for a while now. But, you can see a poor pic of it here:...

Unfortunately, due to a lack of coin shops in my area, I have to use Ebay a lot to satisfy my need for coins. I'm lucky that I have been succesful...
It's ok to save a roll or two from each issue, but I wouldn't count on it making you much money anytime soon. I buy a roll of each just to have. I...
I seriously doubt there will ever be a true universal currency. After at least 20,000 years of humans trading goods for other monetary devices,...

Hows the old saying go...."a fool and his money....." Who would pay $1,700 for a coin that scratched up?! GUy~
Don't do that. And don't buy coins for the grade. If you see something you like, get it. It's easy and fun. If it looks nice in your opinion, what...
Not that it's any of my business, but she's 22 and doesn't have a job and apparently still lives at home? Man, she has problems beyond...
