Here is the one Bicentennial medal I have, the small one in gold. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] It came in a nice wooden box. [ATTACH] The very large...
The title got my attention too. FDR died in April 1945. Maybe the mint did make some 1945 pattern coins, although I doubt it. The arguments were...
All of this just goes to show that you should keep your money in a bank, not buried in the ground. I wonder what the interest would have been on...
All he needs is for the Dutch auction to reach an acceptance point of $50, and he will have succeeded. If that set is worth $1,750, I wonder what...
My impression is that David Lawrence owns most of the material that they auction, but that might be the wrong assumption.
Some people didn’t like that 1795 dollar because it has adjustment marks. They never bothered me because they flowed with the design.

One of the weird things that PCGS started doing 20 years ago was to mark the label of their slab with wording like "GSA hoard." The message was...
It has some hairlines and the color does not look original. I don't think that it will grade. The sharpness grade is on the low end of VF.
I didn't think that I would get either Gordian I or II Africanus given their rarity. But this one cropped up so I bought it. Gordian I and II...
Most all of the "auction house estimates" that I see are on the low side. I think the strategy is make you think that it will go cheap. That gets...
I have a nice coin, but then there are pieces like this one out there. PCGS graded this MS-65, but my market grade is MS-64 given the envelope or...
Each of the letters, numbers and stars that appear on the very early U.S. were punched into the die with individual tools. For that reason the...
