That is not the case from what I have seen. The coins were issued in a plush box, not a plastic case that shows only one side. They can be removed...
Nice find. It has Choice VF sharpness, but it has other issues on the rims and the like. Therefore it's not worth a lot of money. The coin is over...
They banned noted author, Roger Burdette, some years ago, and there are few people on the planet who have more to offer than he does. They...
Here's mine. I saw this at the show and really liked it. PCGS graded this one AU-58. The EAC grade is probably EF-45. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I keep...
The interesting about this design is that the mint paid Schlag for his winning design and then changed most of the aspects of it. Sorry Jefferson...
I'd say VF-25. Nice coin!
Calvin Coolidge was alive and in office when his profile appeared on the 1926 Sesquicentennial half dollar. Of course, one might recall the remark...
Here is my "place to park some (dumb, as it turned out) money coin." This is just one of many examples that show timing is everything in finance....
Condor is one of many people who was purged from the rolls. Unlike some others he has either never been reinstated or asked to be reinstated.
I did a Google search on these. Some outfit called the American Mint is offering some them. It’s hard to believe that the ended up in a cash...

Don't get addicted to the "CAC trap." Years ago this coin could have been graded from MS-64 to MS-65. The minor disturbances on Washington’s cheek...
According to the Greysheet, they are worth $130 a roll or $3.25 apiece in average Good. VG and better rolls are quoted at $260 or $7.50 apiece....
I am constantly undergrading these coins, but from the looks of this one, I would say the market grade is EF-40. So far as i'm conerned, it's a VF-30.
The biggest concern these days is, are they genuine? With so many Chinese fakes on the market, you always have to keep that in mind. We can't help...
It's in the center of the obverse, and it's only the concave dent. Civil War bullets were low velocity projectiles. The force from the bullet was...
Here a model of The Hunley that is available at the gift shop. This one is too big to get into an exhibit case, which was my bad. They are smaller...
I remember when I finished my set of the 1940 to date Lincoln cents back in the early 1960s. I was so proud of it that I typed out a little sign...
