Agree that it's fake. Worth noting, though, that at least they got the barcode right on this one -- it scans as the same number that's printed on...
I agree with @Beefer518's post about photo difficulties. If this were eBay, I'd want to look at the seller's other listings of dimes. If all the...
Only two of the best dates in the series, and in XF-AU condition, maybe better for the 1909-S -- but with green spots of verdigris. :( There once...
And even that will start absorbing water as soon as you pour it and get humid air into the bottle. Not much, and not quickly, if you keep the...
Because they're so closely related, they got similar names, back before names were systematic (constructed according to well-specified rules)....
I've seen reports of a bank offering $105 for $100 worth of change. I don't think it's common at the moment.

But what could be more universally useful than the venerable one-cent coin? Oh. Yeah. Um. :rolleyes:
Note, though, that he also had "an old farm". Yeah, it gives you a place to store your metal, but it's also real estate... ;)
As far as using copper to speculate or store value -- I look at the "nice suit" argument that gold bugs use all the time ("an ounce bought a nice...
And plumbing. And refrigeration. And HVAC. And, unlike silver and photographic film at the turn of the century, none of these markets seem...
This is an excellent point. As gold gets higher, the difference in price between common and better dates (or conditions) shrinks. But, again,...
We'll see who's laughing when all the zombie-apocalypse preppers realize that there's no such thing as zombies, but they're being overrun by...
Which of course leads us to the real path to wealth: figure out how to make people listen to a sentence like that and not find it...
