Nice Rickie! You should complete that holder or set.
Yep - had an Engineering title the first 20 years on the job, new company changed that took us over changed that quickly.
Nice pickup Stainless.
I think O-109 also - but the O-109 does not mention the letters in MERI. This appears in the O-109A with the die crack. So wouldn't this...
I agree - but problem free. I see the dirt on this one, but not what might be lurking in the dirt that the others see. So some good points.
I agree - somewhat. Most dealers I know will list a MS64 raw coin at the same price as a graded coin - and on choice coins they won't budge....
Yep - I have to agree with Mike if the coin has issues. My original post assumed(bad on my part) the difference in color was just the pictures...

Keep looking - there are some still varieties out there that bring big bucks. And I did get enough from one coin to pay for most of a trip to...

See Franks's post and then read it again. Before deciding on something get a red book or find a book on something you are interested in. Read...
Looks like it could use a good home. Then maybe it can rest from all the abuse it has taken.
Hard to tell, but from the pictures it is AU details - the color does make me think of one I have that was whizzed. Hope it is just the pictures....
And to add to what Frank said - resist the urge to just buy. Learn first and carefully buy second. This should help you to make sure you get...
I think his store is still offline though. Give him some time and I am sure he will get it up and running.
Very good point. It is always best with in-hand appraisal with your own eyes. The problem is my local dealer does not have a lot of coins in some...
Lets see - I like au58 also, but I actually like wear on the older coins. To me people collect them because they are well struck in most cases,...
