Just for kicks I've been following completed Ebay sales of rolls of 2009 cents . . . prices were crazy, but they've come down a lot lately. Boxes...
Well . . . if I see folks on eBay purchasing Type-3 rolls stamped at prices like $40 a roll . . . well, then, I'll just see myself as someone...
I'm thinking ahead. *If* the fourth coin is released in DC, I can probably attend, and then walk to the DC post office, get them stamped that...
Prices, today, are already going down (perhaps folks have gotten shipments from the mint now)? I see, e.g., this one (a single roll) went for...
Congrats. Got a URL for that (if it's online)?
I live in Northern Va., work in DC. So, my daytime local Post office is the huge one just across from Union Station (my local one at home is the...
The best note I ever got from an eBay seller (from whom I purchased about 5-6 circulated Indian Head cents for around $11), was "thank you, and...
Yes -- certainly a difference. One of my strong memories in chemistry-lab was that we had to "weigh" chlorine gas -- and we did it by having...

Numismedia lists 1972-D Kennedy half, AU, for 0.58 (MS60 for 0.86) I've heard (I think) that Numismedia is a bit on the low side -- i.e., what...

OK, I'm no expert . . . but it's hard to imagine that the amount of chlorine in the amount of table salt could possibly be harmful. I base this...
From another thread . . . we were wondering where the "dividing line" (so to speak) is between collecting mostly P or mostly D (or half/half)...
Well . . . . I would say certainly either that, or -- since the Mem design is history and the fourth cent depicts the Capitol -- I'd lean towards...
Oh, I've seen the items on eBay. But I'm just wondering . . . do you just walk into a post office and ask the busy teller, "hey can I buy a stamp...
Why do you say "probably more available" ? I.e,. why do you think so? (I'm just fishing for good news <g>) And does T1 mean "log cabin"?
Can you share with us where this information comes from?
How does one get a postal cancellation on a roll?
1. Where (i.e., city) was this? 2. What T1? (i.e., the difference between that and T2 -- presuming T is "type") 3. What shape was it in?
Hey, maybe I could meet you there. In any event, I'll post a "call up" about a week before the event, see who here might be going. (There's a...
