Jefferson Nickels are really only collectible in mint state grades, but I guess some people would pay money for the varieties (overdates/mm) in...
I am the first one to say that it is impossible in many instances to discern between NT & AT and I do have one of those degrees. I hold a BS in...
Here is a close up photo of an MS65 1943/2-P. The "2" is readily apparent with a loupe. [IMG] :smile
We have discussed this before. It is time we return the favor and give the exotic dancers a raise, and start using $2 bills. Eliminate the $1...

I have hated the classic head gold design for as long as I can remember. However, that is the first truly attractive classic head half eagle I...

That might win. Hideous, just hideous. And we think American designs have suffered since the early 20th Century. Compare the above design to...
I was thinking about bidding higher, but I already have an 1881-S MS68 & a gorgeous deeply toned Great Falls MS67. The Great Falls dollar is...
You guys are not going to believe this, but I prefer DMPL coins without any color. The color can distract away from the contrast IMO. It is a...
Oh so you are the guy that outbid me. I can only imagine how nice that coin looks in hand.
I have to say that I am not really surprised about the Franklin Half getting bagged. If you read the third paragraph in my original post about...
