That's really kind of my point. Moderns have to achieve their prices with almost no demand. Much of the demand that does exist isn't even what...
I've seen offers of $15 for AU '83-P quarters. I'm pretty sure the advertiser wanted solid AU and better and would have refused just a bunch of...
Krause does especially poorly on moderns and often very dramatically undervalues them. There many moderns that bring many many multiples of the...
The hubs were getting pretty old in 1968 and had lost a great deal of detail so these coins usually have a somewhat "mushy" appearance which looks...
I was hoping you meant the quarter. There appears to be an unreported RMM on the '84-D quarter. The cent appears to be machine doubling.
I agree. There are tens of millions of people collecting clad quarters from pocket change and there's a very small jump from collecting these...
World mint sets are often a great deal. People didn't save many of the coins minted between 1945 and 2000 but the mints made BU sets of coins....
I'm a big fan of modern Indian coins and hope this thread does nothing to discourage anyone from posting them. I've got a very gemmy '54 proof...
Just delete b & c and change it to; the coins go to many counting houses at the behest and under the control of the regional FED branches....
You guys have it basically right but the FED branches do very little in handling coins now days. This job is contracted out to the counting...
I concur. Almost all 1983 to date proofs are DCAM and '82 to date are superb. I think they might have peaked back in the '80's but every coin...
Some areas of the country are doing better than others. Places like MT ID and eastern Washington might actually need additional coin and could...
Well, the thickness of a clad dime is more variable than an old silver dime. Weight is determined by the thickness (and compo- sition) of the...
This date appears to be well represented in FED storage. If they get melted it's a great date but until they do it's best to consider this...
You have half of a regular 1980 mint set. The other half has an envelope with blue stripes and the six Philly mint coins for 1980.
I hate to see anyone buy any modern coin for "investment". I know this isn't really what you're talking about but when this consideration is a...
I had a hunch it would go 69 but it's hard to grade proofs from pictures. You shouldn't be extremely excited about this though since '83...
One thing not mentioned yet but that is well known is that the reverse design is the same as the Apollo 11 mission design worn by the astronauts...
Nice BU cu/ ni Greek coins of the '50's can be quite pricey. The '54 5D lists for $50 but, of course, this one isn't unc. While it lists for...
I like Ike. I even think the reverse design is pretty good art. The obverse isn't bad art when you consider what Gasparro had to work with....
