I'm trying to read research reports on stocks, BARRONs, Burdette's SAINTS book, and stuff on CT and other sites. And my productivity is down...
That was all the choices ? What about FINE, EXTRA FINE, GOOD, etc. ?
Maybe...you could also have some inflationary or deflationary forces that lead to a nation or two going on a gold-buying spree.
I could see it above $2,000 even before then. Maybe in a few weeks/months. But certainly before the spring coin shows in 2021.
But I guess they sold them all, right ? So they pretty much catered to demand, I guess. I guess it was a residue of the adults who collected in...
Thanks I'll read it tonight.
I'm not an expert on these -- I got them as presents pretty much for Christmas and my bday in the 1970's -- but given their numbers, aren't these...
It's on my TO READ list....been reading Burdette's Saints book trying to make a big dent in it so I can finish by the end of the month. :D
I would guess, on average, maybe half for the stuff trading above bullion prices.
Really ? Interesting....So how did it become the system we have today ? I know it took off when the TPGs came around, I presume Sheldon was long...
Hey Vets....I take it that by-and-large when you saw UNC in The Red Book or in the CDN Newsletter and all those others, that it generally referred...
Can't say enough about the Roger Burdette book on Saint-Gaudens......freakin' spectacular. :D If you collect Saints...if you're considering...
Another great write-up. This is probably the 1st coin I ever got as a present and became familiar with.
BB21, I wonder if Sheldon just ASSUMED that an uncirculated coin would have no wear ? Maybe he just never figured on wear, dings, friction from...
By "wear" -- we mean it actually circulated like at a coffee shop or something for some brief period of time, right ? As opposed to never being...
Randy, it's been discussed in other threads that many times with certain coins (Saints, MSDs) the AU58's look "better" than the low-60's MS. I...
Not only that there are very few "+" marks below MS64. I guess the Sheldon Scale didn't see the need for 1 point increments. Rounding up/down...
Yeah, even without your quantity, I thought having the 1970 book was good to have. It followed a big decade of coin collecting (maybe the...
My mistake.....the price listed included cents for most years, but a few of the others didn't have 2 decimal places for cents and just used...
Dave, I see Proofs from 1873-1883 going for $340 - $500. But the 1884 (Wolfson Sale, 1963) is at $8,750 and the 1885 Proof is $9,000. UNC from...
Separate names with a comma.
