I don't get it. It's illegal to melt cents or nickels for their metal, and you can't ship more than $100 worth outside the US and even then it has...
Updating the original story, as of Dec 30 the US Department of Labor is suing the employer for retaliation, and back wages and damages for 8 other...
Do you think this is the DDO? It's not. Are you aware of how much grading costs versus the actual value of the coins you are posting? Just curious.
NGC does break them out in their Variety Plus and pop report, but not in the price guide....
OK, I see it now, thanks for clarifying. The bottom right of N is also very squared off on some and on others comes to a point or nearly so, as...
Same here. Can someone clarify what this "sharp N" is supposed to be? Is it the bottom right of the N in UNITED? Because on Heritage I'm seeing...
"My contention is that my piece, along with a few others, was specially made at the San Francisco mint in 1909. It was made to be, front and back,...

A bunch of common marks across the fakes should make it easy to ID others, and possibly find the actual source coin in an auction sale. From the...
I only have #20, first edition. I don't collect books on coins. #20 is great. I enjoy his section on the current events happening outside the coin...

It's pocket change. What do you think is special about it?
My biggest splurge was a couple years ago, my profile pic, not US though. But every coin is a splurge these days for me! My most recent also a...
Indeed it has. Good work Jack. Took them a month and a half, but I guess that's not so bad.

The funniest part is that the verified corner angles are impossible.
Much discussed over on CCF. Just change your definition of "federal" and voila! Groundbreaking! Hype!
I think it's also RPD 103; just pulled it up randomly as an example.

I often see outliers in sales history on HA and PCGS that are 2-3x what others sold for in the same grade, so I think another factor could be...
