For things like rolls and other groupings of coins that I don't want to list individually, I put a code number on the container or wrapper and...
Personally, I think the practice of accepting a fee and then not grading and slabbing a coin is an extraordinarily bad business practice and...
I think I would take the silver eagle too because it is a large and beautiful coin. It's a tough call and pretty equal in my mind. That's why I...
I guess I should have specified that if you don't choose, you lose your money anyway. :)
For me it's a price limit. Some pretty high grade coins aren't worth a lot of money and I don't worry about them.
So you are walking through a coin shop, and there are two common coins sitting there for exactly the same price. One is an NGC graded MS63 1921...
If they did I would buy it because it's the only coin out of the bunch I really want.
It's just too tempting to take the short term gain even if it destroys the franchise.
I completely agree with this approach. It isn't a foolproof solution, but it's a big help to a non-collector trying to figure out what they have,...
If your goal is to put together date & mintmark collections in circulated condition where quality isn't the objective, junk silver is a good place...
Don't clean them. Learn how to handle and store the coins so they are preserved. Don't run out to sell them; you will probably regret it...

I was under the impression that SEGS was borderline respectable, and perhaps the #6 best TPG after PCI.
I go out occasionally with my son, but we've only found pocket change, pens, belt buckles, boat parts, and things like that. Nothing of...
For me, a fifth reason to buy the coin slabbed is to make it easier to resell at full value in case I die. If my kids take a coin into a shop...
By pure coincidence, I also found a 1919 cent last year in pocket change. I'm not 100% sure of the source, but I think it came from Burger King....
The government received a lesson in economics on that one. I assume that some similar hoarding of nickels will occur again, especially if they...
Are trolls born? Happy Birthday anyway, just in case they are.
Either Ebay if you don't mind the work, or just take them to a local coin shop and get an offer from the dealer. Try not to cheat anybody if you...
With enough money, anything is possible. Offer enough money and you can have your photo put on the slab, or a lock of your hair inserted below...
