The law against melting silver coins was repealed in 1969. That's not really the point, though. The benefit is that there are lots of people...
I'm not sure, but I started noticing something similar with nickels a few years back. I don't remember which year it was, but I noticed that all...
Those are not 2020 and 2021 coins. I assumed the question was about common circulating coins that aren't pictured.
I'm afraid that's not bokeh (out-of-focus blurring for objects closer or further away than the focal point); it's coma, a form of distortion where...
Yep, and dimes worn to that extent have probably lost 10% or more of their original weight, so "melt" for them is actually less than melt for...
Dad sent us a Christmas card with checks, MD to NC, maybe 350 miles. He put it in the mail on Dec 18, I think. We received it 30 days later. I...
And he's right -- but if that's your goal, it seems like you're more interested in a business, not a hobby. Or maybe it's better to say your hobby...
Nice catch, good eye, and welcome to CoinTalk!
I'm sure there are people who will explain why a collection should have an overall theme or organization. Are you enjoying getting and owning the...
Nope. It's worth over $44000, if it's easy to sell it at that price. The problem I have: tomorrow it might well be worth $50000, or $38000. And a...
I've only gotten consecutive notes once or twice, and only a few at a time. On the other hand, that means more variety. But I go through cash much...
Yep, out there, and continuing to be replenished. I've actually gotten a V-nickel in change at least once in the last ten years. I've got bags of...
I actually did withdraw $200, but the notes from our ATM are always random, and usually pretty well circulated.
Today at Harris-Teeter: a dozen or so cents (mostly Zincolns, found one 1971-d), two nickels (not too old), one clad quarter, one clad dime, and...
From the ATM, last night: [ATTACH] From the self-checkout change dispenser, this morning: [ATTACH] :banghead: :facepalm: But, hey, silver...
Ugh. In that case, you definitely have more recent information than I do, and it sounds pretty grim. :( I see that...
The Wayback Machine is a new thing under the sun. But it's a nonprofit effort, and WAY too huge to back up onto a few external drives if the owner...
It's a nice example, but I'm not a big fan of the reverse stain. I'm pretty sure that if you're patient you can get a nicer example for the...
If the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent, surely the Fed can do the same?
In that case, I think I'll wait for menopause.
Separate names with a comma.
