For a while that was true, but over the last year I'm seeing a lot more new BIN listings with shipping additional. It did catch my attention. I'm...
Ooh, and I've got free shipping as a result of my follies earlier in the year! Oh, fine.
Still up. I'm dithering -- I don't collect mint sets as a rule, but the low mintage makes it tempting. And I don't collect American Innovations,...
Yep, your post added good information. I'm sorry my post read as though I was responding to yours; I've edited it to be clearer (I hope).
I see what you mean, but the "pimples" or "dimples" look to me to be honest hits, as does the stuff to the left of the date. That very straight...
The coin in the original post is not the overdate. The 1942/1-D is more subtle than the Philadelphia version, but every example must have the...
I keep telling myself I'll do the same, but myself knows better.

Sorry it turned out that way. I was trying to decide whether or not I could see luster on the individual photos, and whether I could see the...
Agreed. It's hard to be sure from a single pair of shots, but even if it isn't cleaned, it's a common date in high AU or low MS. Certainly worth...
I was always taught that they were called "cut nails" because they were cut from a sheet of metal. Machines doing this could turn out nails a lot...
I hope nobody tries to nail a dime to my daughter's throat... :eek:
Well, hey, there was just that Coin Week article from the other thread about Celtic coins. They were gold with squiggles, this is gold with...
Well, that's certainly a bonanza for NGC, and probably for the shopping network. There'll be a lot of sad faces when the buyers look to "cash in"...
I liked it better the first way.
I'm afraid that just doesn't sell in today's market. ;) But, yeah, they sure do seem to think the price doesn't matter for most of their buyers....
