Almost always. Early US coins of all series (pre-1836) are collected by die variety. While Flowing Hair halves start at a higher base price,...
I got my first Red Book when I was 10. I loved it, and still have it. Highly recommend every collector or potential collector have a copy, kids or...
The coin market has been steadily increasing for the past year. It is no surprise that yours went up.
What an unfortunately cluttered, ugly design for a reverse. If you have to take up a large portion of the coin with a legend explaining what the...
Haha, don't worry, they are not real. These are the sorts of things you might find in a museum gift shop.
R-1 is super common, so I'd use the generic date value. R-3 doesn't usually have much of a premium. What is the rarity of the C-4 and C-5?...

Wow, now there's a type we don't see around here very often. Very nice!
A "complete" set is however you choose to define it. You clearly have spent a lot of time and effort to thoroughly research your set, and I admire...
As I continue to build my collection, I dislike rising prices. My challenge is ponying up for a coin that last year sold for so much less, even...
Feuchtwangers are just plain cool. These are one of those coins that if I'm ever feeling frisky and have the right money at the right time, I...
What grade ranges are you looking at? If you're shooting for a solid VF set, then sure, these will take a long time to build - but that's mostly...
