You can't expect to get better mint marked pieces in a lot like this. You would expect duplicates. The main thing to be concerned about is cull...
I don't have very many transportation tokens. This is nice one for the New York and Harlaem Railroad which ran in New York City. It started out as...
I think that MS-61 is on the low side. It could be that CACAC under grades to get higher prices for their products. I haven’t looked at a lot of...
I don't know what the current thinking is, but for as long as I have been active as a collector, this little die crack which runs from the rim to...
It looks like an MS-63 to me, but some people might be turned on by the toning. I'm not.
I am sure it's the same with silver, but a lot of bids for larger gold coins ($10 and $20) on the Grey Sheet has really flattened out. There is...

Think of it as like when you dig a ditch. You have to throw the dirt somewhere, usually beside the ditch. That is raised, like the metal on the...
The reverse has a cleaned look to me. I don't think that it's worth spending the money to slab it. Time was $200 was the guideline, but now with...

The imperial Roman emperors almost always used their coins for political purposes. Septimius Severus was a very successful emperor. Here he is...
Two thumbs way up .. ;):cigar: That was a most interesting video.
As a U.S. type coin collector, I've gone for the Proof coins whenever I could. Sometimes they are cheaper than the Mint State pieces. I did buy...
