A low end VF '65 quarter is not often seen any longer. In only ten more years they'll probably all be either cull or VG and lower. Nice...
Depends on your perspective. These are exactly the sets I'm talking about. The %age that have been destroyed is much higher than the older sets....
Wow!! These must be coins you've set aside over some period of time. They are far nicer than anything I see in circulation. I just don't even...
It's more complex than simply a comparison of mint set availability to the demand for mint sets. This is largely the result of two factors; more...
Pretty nice VF. It's a little rough but was well made and is only lightly worn.
The last two years have been good for proof set prices and very very good for mint sets.
[ATTACH] You don't see them in this kind of shape any longer. Indeed, they aren't really common in any condition at all any longer. Almost 75%...
I don't disagree but I believe that there are too many people setting these aside now days to have any value in the future. Inflation will erode...

I've seen ads to buy, sell, and trade bar nickels as recently as the mid-'90's but these are nearly forgotten now days.
It's probably because of Spadone that I still collect bar nickels. These were 1960-D nickels with die chips above liberty and the date. I've...
I've been having att computer probalems all day. i can't imagine how the sentence got chopped off. ... versions were melted to make appliances...
A lot of the early modern Japanese are really tough. the 10 Y coins from the early '50's for instance are impossible in true Unc and not nearly...
I've seen only a few of these but most were in poundage back in the '80's and all were worn. I have to imagine they are a lot more worn today....
I don't see too many coins that are worth much but there are several that are quite scarce or rarely seen in that condition. As nice as these...
It looks almost fully lustrous. It doesn't appear to be SMS. One cent coins are funny since they often sit in one place for many many years....
