I collect them too but seem to have far more trouble finding them than getting them at a good price. Collectors really need to be careful with...
The newer editions and the '86 imply these are scarce coins and list them at high prices. 3.25 times unc is only about $9.25 and you'd find the...
I think I have a pair of 1958 1 eyrir proofs but am not certain. I haven't seen any others of the early proofs. These have squarish rims and are...
You'll see them in dealer stock once in a while. There are mint sets that aren't extremely hard to find. Mintages were in the 5 to 10 thousand...
I like their moderns. There don't seem to be any real scarcities but none are really common in unc. Someone tried promoting the big dollar...
Exhibit: Half Cents - 1804 - January 1st 2009 - Fish I found this post on "Exhibit: Half Cents - 1804 - January 1st 2009 - Fish" interesting and...
Mint marks on the quarters were terrible in '80-'83. If it's a blob it's Denver and if it's a lopsided blob it's Philly. The Phillys...
Some moderns are actually quite common in XF or AU but rare in unc. The best example are the 10Y Japanese coins from the early '50's. The...
This is about the size of it. For a coin to get to your hands without marking it almost has to go through all the hoppers and bins on top so...
All the investors are buying old coins. I've found only a handfull of MS-65 coins for the entire states series. Except for a few satin finish...
A lot of people just don't like moderns. I'm not one of them. I also don't collect slabbed states coins yet but do seek them out in nice...
I should add that this coin comes with two distinct reverses and this is the English version. The Scottish version is similar but has a single...
The cu/ ni shillings make an interesting set in unc and several are getting pricey but in XF only one or two war- rant much of a premium. The...
This is a better date. At one time it wholesaled at $4 a roll and this was in the days that $4 meant a little something. Apparently a few bags...
It's a 4 year British sterling type coin made from 1834 to 1837. They don't seem to be especially tough in low grade.
No, you'd be amazed at how few rolls were being saved in those days. It was up considerably from the early '70's and late '60's but still it was...
Looks Austrian to me. I'm not sure I could figure out the denomination without better pictures though. Might be one Kruezer.
I like all the Soviet coinage and a lot of it is really tough especially in unc. The government discouraged coin collecting and almost all of...
