I like the Safeway truck in the background of the first pic. Smart thinking....who's going to guess new money rolls in a produce truck?! Guy~
It wasn't me, but a few months back a friend of mine who works at a Vegas casino in a cashier's booth, had an old lady come in and want to...
No, both the new and old mints are south of Market in a mostly industrial area. The Wells fargo museum is near the Trans-America building. Guy~
I didn't mean gradeable as in slabbed, though I agree with your estimates. I simply meant there are probably less than half that are worthy of a...
Not sure how much into art you are, Ruben, but nearby is the Museum of Comic Art. It's free, except for an encouraged donation, and has a lot of...
100,000 were made, and I'd guess less than half that number still exist in any gradeable form today. Dimes were heavily used in the early 19th...
The "new" mint in SF has no tours or public access, nor a gift shop. The old mint was a museum until 1994, but as far as I know, it's been closed...
I think people just pull them out of circulation when they find them. I bet there's not many people who don't have at least a handfull of them...
Not to disrespect any honest online sellers, but in my opinion, you'd have to be completely stupid to buy a key coin like that online, graded by...
I thought it funny the guy claimed he didn't know a cleaned coin from an uncleaned one, yet has the nerve to mark it up 500%. Wouldn't that be...
Everything I've ever read has said a rim ding will effect the grade. Of course, I've bought many coi ns with dings along the rim that were...
The pic I posted was of a small date coin. The date is too far from the bust and way too close to the bottom rim. I looked at every example I...
I've kinda gotten into bust halfs this year, so I'm no expert by far yet, but in my opinion, it's a fake, and not a very good one. The date is too...
Sweet coin! Love the color and the detail. Guy~
Speaking of people with way too much time on their hands, also found this on YouTube to be of interest....well, it held my interest more than the...
I don't think it'll be passing on clutter to the next generation. Whether I became a coin collector or not, if someone passed on to me a gigantic...
It's weird, but I tried and tried...and tried some more to relate to your problem, and I just couldn't do it. I guess thats why I'm a collector,...
I just assumed that was a common problem with the edge lettering. I bought a roll of the Washington's from the bank when they came out, and every...
MS 63? I always have a hard time grading Franklins...they all look circulated because of the lack of design detail. Guy~
A lot of us don't have multiple shipping options. Where I live, there is the USPS, and thats it. I could drive 28 miles one way to visit a UPS or...
