I believe it happens right away at the mint. And as we continue to see today, the mint can have errors or damaged products get out (I have seen...
Hello all, I was looking at my 1990 prestige set and noticed that the cent looked like the picture below. Would you call this a die chip or is it...
MS 63 ...could have been higher without the scratch/ding to the left of the nose (also the reverse looks very nice could see this as a obv 63 /...
My guess is that the coin doesn't cost anywhere near that much to produce. The US Mint and various other mints sell their silver bullion costs for...
There is potential; for example, the 2012 Hawaii "P" version sells for a premium. On the other hand, many of the 2010s sell for under issue price...
I don't see any max mintage on the palladium, but it only lets me add 6 to my cart. Also, in the link below it shows 24 made so far....
In terms of strike, the technology or the quality control was likely not good enough in those times. However, I have seen some really nice coins...

I'll also go MS-67 ...looks virtually mark-free; an excellent specimen!
Gold down about $200 since this thread started...hopefully the OP sold in 2010 (or better yet in 2011)...
This was my thought as well as @jwitten comment about the GTG posts. You can have tons of peoplet say a grade and then the coin is just not right...
Anyone see that the 1 oz Proof Gold version is available? The price tag tough....:eek:...
Here is a new addition. It isn't quite a slab, but it is related to (6), so I'll call it (6.5) If the holder is accurate, then these were given...
I'm not sure which company you are talking about? The closest I can find from Conder101's list is...
I don't know but would side with your guess that it is just the time when the box is packed or sealed. The US Mint might have an answer, so let's...
