I don't have year goals. I have a running wantlist. As items are acquired, they disappear from my wantlist but are replaced with new items of...
Yep, you got that right.
True about the Oregon coin, but I was thinking more about the chain of volcanoes up and down the coast. Didn't know that about Nevada. I would...
I was putting the last of the state quarters (Alaska and Hawai'i) into my album and not surprisingly had the urge to pick out the best and worst....
My collection pretty much stops when 90% silver business strikes stopped (1964). State quarters are my only real exception. And I only buy...
Lots of collectors have subscriptions. BUT if your interest area is mostly after 1950, forget it. CDN doesn't include much of that stuff. It's...
I've had the same problem for a couple years. Part of it is as you mature as a collector your wantlist contains more and more pricey...
It's bad. Maybe genuine, but still bad. If you don't buy it, you don't have to worry about cracking it out and returning it. Put it out of your mind.
Your coin in XF (which I believe is correct) has a current greysheet Bid of $145. Cleaned (which I also believe is correct) probably(?) makes what...
The general thinking is that older Lincolns are on the rise because of the 2009 anniversary with the release of new reverse designs. The interest...
Based strictly on your images, I would pass on the coin. It just looks ... wrong. Maybe in real life it is much better. With an AU coin I would...
My type set was guided by several things: 1. My cutoff date was 1964, the last year of the business strike 90% silver. 2. No proofs. 3. The NGC...
Tell that to NGC. If you want to do a full Registry set, you'll need all three SLQs. Don't know about PCGS. Never looked at their Registry type set.
Santa (with a bit of help from me) got me ... TA DA!!! The Flying Eagle & Indian Cent Attribution Guide/2nd Edition by Richard E. Snow. It's...
Again, a type set is whatever you want it to be. I personally would add to Silverstruck1' s list. 1913 Buffalo nickel on Raised Ground 1913-1938...
Thank you for the greetings. Had lunch with the parents and in-laws. Dad is 93, mom is 91 and MiL is 90. Sounds like good genes to me.
Certainly looks like it, but going back to the coin itself, nope, they are the same. Font type is definitely the same. The left "C" is punched...
Like I said earlier, type sets are defined by the collector. By my definition, I see three coins missing: Type I Buffalo nickel (1913 - Raised...
Since type sets are defined by the collector, we'd need the particulars on each coin. Date, mint mark, grade, etc. For instance, how many SLQ's...
From what I see in catalog value, the 45-P and 45-S should be the tough ones. I know the 45-S with FS in any MS grade is the key. As long as I...
Separate names with a comma.
