I will buy coins I like in the GSA or out of the GSA holder. Some people only like them in the GSA packaging. Once out of the GSA packaging you...
The date that a coin is scheduled to be sold is easiest to find on each lot when browsing the listings. It's buried a bit on the detail page of...
Assuming you'll net $1.15 each, you'll get far more than $4.50 worth of enjoyment by spending them. That's supposedly what they were made for.
The dorm area of the college, where many attendees stay, has the "lunar lounge," which from my understanding is basically a coin camp...
If you're a betting man, put money on it. Also pick Green Bay to beat the spread against KC in Super Bowl I.

The 1923 you show looks like it's almost full bands. All it takes is either a hit on the bands or one point at which they blend together and it...
The color on the reverse gives me pause. It has some splotchy spittle marks and finger prints on it, but "full red" at the lower left reverse...
I wouldn't so much say they're beginning to tone as I would they are toned coins. They began to tone in 1936, 1947, and 1886. The pattern on the...
Easier to draw.
Some combination of fire, dirt, moisture, oils, wishing wells, ... When 97 years old you are, look this good you will not.
I have one autographed coin (actually two) that I like. I had Glenna Goodacre sign two Sacagawea dollars at the ANA show in 2000. Silly me...
