I'd trust Roger's info if I were you. (Conder's post)
There are more than you would think, at least more than I would think. Especially among gold. Gold is the only ones I can look up. Data is as of...
One that I can show you ? No, the web site where I found the article has been defunct for several years. But there was a guy, I can't remember his...
Not actual circulation, but rough handling for sure.
What I have said is that if you store coins properly that you won't likely be able to see a change in toning in your lifetime. But that doesn't...
Yes they had a plan to use the shell casings and yes it's in the books. But they never actually used the metal from melted shell casings to make...
Well join the club Greg. The so called experts have been arguing about what defines an error and what defines a variety for decades. And they will...

Maybe so, but then Doug's known to be like Yosemite Sam at times :D
It had nothing to do with the graders, never does. Things like that are simple labeling mistakes made by staff who print the labels & assemble the...
That's quite a haul Paddy :thumb: And I certainly can't blame you for wanting to show them off. As for the milled coins, even the French, who...
