Thing is, any information you post here could well help someone else the next day, or the next month, or ten years down the line. So it's still...
I was probably six or seven, so, yeah. :rolleyes:
Wonder if there will be enough of a "quarter shortage" that merchants will start accepting and giving out half-dollars again... :eek:
The excerpt in your image is exactly correct, but it leaves out the fact that these were being heavily advertised in coin magazines back in the...
An obvious fake, and the other points you highlight are things everyone should look for to identify fakes. Not all those proof-only coins got...
Good luck getting good photos of already-slabbed coins -- don't the existing third-party photo services always photograph the coins before they're...
Danny (since you're first-naming me, I guess it's OK for me to first-name you, right?) @Garlicus is still waiting for the silver he paid you for....

Doesn't matter. It's (labeled) The Finest Known, and if you don't pay up, it means that somebody else will have The Finest Known, not you, and...
That does it, buster. You're not allowed to go out with the metal detector until you've finished your homework. ;)
Yeah, that's an ugly kind of damage -- but the date and mint mark are clear, and so is the design. Yours is certainly better than this one, which...
Okay, there's "finding a surprising thread in the Ancients section", and then there's "finding a thread where @GDJMSP appeals to the number of...
