I would gladly accept $3500.00 for my humble cent book.
No I wouldn't go as high as $250.00 for that one. I did give $300.00 for the one I have but you cannot see the rim chunk missing inside my...
I wish I had a photograph of it with me... I too have a damaged 09-S, VDB. Probably an XF-45 coin with a nick... Well, no, rather a chunk missing...
Dog food futures. That’s the ticket.
I am in agreement with everyone else. Not worth the expense to have this one graded. It doesn't appear uncirculated in your photo's and that is a...
