That is about the most rare coin I know of, a heavily worn 64 kennedy. :)
Dangerous thinking. You made the money when you found the halves, no matter what they are worth the silver value today. When you start...
Well I feel like a loser. :( Sorry to my secret santa recipient, I didn't gift wrap them, just mailed them in a bubble mailer. Sometimes I...
Nice problem to have now, huh? Only extras in V nickels I have are a bunch of 12d's I got in a pile of crud. Well, it was a trick question. I...
I am envious of those that can collect one coin per country. How do you do it? I cannot collect just one coin per emperor or empress, let alone...
Lol, those aren't even my periodicals or history books. Those are in another bookcase. Ancients are a pretty literature intensive field if you...

I would say humid climate in an older album. I have personally taken out Peace dollars, franklins, and other coins from similar albums looking...
Not too awful hard to figure out. :) My wife sells womens clothes on it right now, but purchases are completely different.
Or some of us do not want to slab. If I stop being on CT, and my ebay account starts listing unslabbed XF/AU SL halves, bust halves, type coins,...
Love the Burmese coin. I almost bought one of those last night actually. :)
Bring CASH. ;)
I love how non-collectors simply equate value with age. I was in a coin store once when someone came in with some morgans and a newspaper. In the...
