That "Strawberry Leaf Cent" is better than any of the known examples. If it were real, it would make the front page of "Coin World" as the find of...
Interesting story ... The Twenty Cent Piece comes back to have the mistake which doomed the issue in the 1870s come back to haunt it again in the...
Here are two Proof cents, one from 1968 and the other from 1969. It's still Lincoln, but if you look at them closely, you will see that the...
PCGS graded this one EF-45. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
The government did not grade this coin as "Uncirculated" when it was issued. If it had, the word "Uncircualted" would have been on the GSA holder....
No.
Yes. I have owned this for many years. This is actually one of the easier medals to locate in this series. It's just quite expensive. [ATTACH]...
It’s there. The serial number is 238a. I didn’t know that this book existed.

No, actually it’s an MS-65, RB. I bought it from Angel Dees. He is noted for stocking only high end coins for the grade.
Here are the two Flyers that are in my collection. This one is PCGS graded MS-65. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] This 1858 is NGC graded MS-64. Oddly enough...
Poor-01 coins might be a challenge to find, but they don't interest me at all. As a young collector, I came to the conclusion that I should be the...
When I was kid in the 1960s, I tried to clean a copper coin with ammonia and ended up with this color on the OP piece. The coin has been played...
The half dollar is no longer a viable coin for use in circulation. If the coins was not offered as a limited mint issue, the series would probably...
If you are only looking for the modern half dollars that the mint only sells in Proofs sets and rolls, @Inspector43, I was not aware that they...
That really depends upon which half dollars you need, and who you define has a "big dealer." A dealer with a million dollar net worth is really...
