I've got a bit of a theme going here, apparently: [ATTACH]
Why only up to 2 choices? I see at least four choices that I'd check...
I remember going to a coin show with my grandfather when I was very young. I remember gaping at all the double eagles -- but $60 or $80 was...
That's a matchbook cover, not a ticket, isn't it? Remember matchbooks?
Looks like an extremely rare pattern for the proposed* Merrick cent! ;) *not actually proposed
Heck, that's why I joined in the first place...
Yeah, I would've snagged that, and also his book of 29 IHCs (including a couple of early ones) for $20 shipped. Ordinarily I would've been camping...
Yup. The bags of MS examples didn't turn up until the early 60s. Nobody's yet found a bag of MS 1895-O Morgans. Or if they have, they aren't...
Meh. Books are a treasure, but also become a nuisance at some point; heavy, voluminous, and a little fussy about environment First place I worked...
I've felt the same way, but then I think about 1950s wages and prices. Dropping $20 on a circulated Morgan today is only about the equivalent of...
Thank you for rescuing them! Take a look at the values for the 1898-O, 1903-O, and 1904-O Morgans pre-1962. ;) I used to come across old Red...

I found to my surprise that there are a bunch of Zeno's paradoxes. I thought it was the "half the distance each time" tale, but apparently the...
Huh. At the last local show, someone asked a nearby dealer if he was looking for 1921 Peace dollars, and he laughed in their face. He said he was...
Don't get me wrong, I love our wooded lot and how convenient it is to stores, schools, and employers. But sometimes I really, really miss dark...
Well, this morning, it's back in my town. Not marked "Out for delivery" yet, though, so I won't be counting my packages before they're delivered.
Like I said, normally they're stars -- much more reliable in my experience than UPS, at least around here. That's why it's a mini-rant, and...
In which the package keeps getting closer, but never actually arrives... Last Saturday I bought a small lot on eBay. It shipped Monday the 12th...
Well, yeah, now they do... :rolleyes:
It's worth one cent, if you spend it quickly. Something has ground off the surface copper plating, exposing the zinc underneath. As soon as it...
Separate names with a comma.
