I have a cent I removed from a proof set that has a thin wire attached to the edge. It looks like a portion of the rim may have been clipped on...
Twenty bucks. Don't clean it, or it'll be worth eleven bucks.
You might want to consider actually finding some canned "air", rather than the stuff they use to clean off computer equipment, etc. (1,1,1,2...
drtucker; only five specimens of the 1913 Liberty nickel were struck, and the whereabouts of all 5 pieces is known. As stated by other posters,...
I think Christmas has been commercialized enough, and the mint has created enough gimmicky junk in recent years.
How about lack of packing? I got a large lot (about 4,000 coins, I think) of Jefferson nickels just loose in a flat-rate priority mail box. The...
The greensheet is the most accurate trade paper, to my knowledge. You can find out more about it at http://www.greysheet.com/cdn/green.asp
I've never seen a PCGS holder like that before. I can't believe they would let NGC corner the market on multi-holders forever, though, so it seems...

I don't think this is any kind of deal to round up circulating cents, and I don't think they're going to end up on eBay. This is just a marketing...
1) I believe you're right on the ponytail design. It looks correct, to me, for a coin of that period. 2 - 3) I'll defer on these. 4) Correct. Full...
I have absolutely no trouble accessing eBay. Now, to answer your question: 1) Their fees are too high. 2) They are too buyer-oriented, not...
I'm surprised we haven't started circulating loonies and two-nies here in Michigan. We circulate Canadian cents, nickels, dimes, and quarters...
No, I bought it already NGC-slabbed. It was an eBay buy I made. Had a terrible picture, so the purchase was not without some degree of risk.
I guess I'm a total cheapskate. I paid $85. What can I say? I've got an eye for a bargain. I know I could never touch first place in the...
