One note: if you're deployed overseas, and you're seeing some opportunities to buy Indian cents (or any other US collectable coins) in your...
I picked the wrong morning to sleep late. :(
I was watching ANACS' new "Coin of the Month" promotion with interest and increasing bemusement. It seemed like a reasonable idea at first -- each...
Where did you find the left-hand image of the S nickel? It doesn't look like any 1912-S I've seen, either. From Heritage Auctions, via Wikipedia:...
It definitely looks like an S, but it's definitely the wrong shape and size.
I don't. It's obvious from the facts I stated that these dealers (the ones at the show I attended, and Provident) can sell this material at higher...
Well, it's one data point (or one set of data points). I'd like to hear from folks at other shows. I will say, though, that the 12x guy usually...
Well, there was a spike around 1980 and one around 2010, but those were the only 30 years I can find where the statement actually applies. [IMG]...

It took me quite a while to realize you were serious. I've got one or two I might want to run by PCGS at some point, but won't be able to get to...

Watch the ego there. ;)
Can't get much rarer than "0 known examples", I guess. RARE 1877 VG+ 5 OVER 7 INDIAN HEAD CENT You know things are tough at the Mint when they...
Yup. I gave up months ago. ;)
Well, this one's bound to do well, since I completely forgot about trying to order. :(
Well, you always feel better about selling before a drop, and selling junk is less likely to generate regret than selling nice pieces.
Not me. I'm waiting for it to get back to 1x face. ;)
15.48 and falling. Makes me feel a bit better about the junk I sold at last weekend's show, but a bit worse about the junk I didn't sell. :rolleyes:
I saw the sale price, too. The fact that you missed it does not justify calling another user a liar. Posting the same inane generalities over and...
Separate names with a comma.
