Nice. The spots on the bottom of the obverse on the 1941 concerns me, just a bit.
Stainless is right, ancients can have alot of detail. Your coin does look kind of strange though A.Z. I'm far from being an expert on ancients...
2008 nickels? I've seen about a half dozen or more here in the middle of nowhere, and half the time I don't even pay attention. They were all from...
I don't think I believe that anything on e-bay is really "unsearched" but for $1.99 you can't really lose. I hope you find some good stuff though.
Good luck!
Things are rough. Jobs are even hard to come by in my neck of the woods. And as for cash drawer finds, a guy I know who was working at a gas...
Cool. If you are grading by redbook standards, and Doug is grading by the ANA book, then I don't see what the major disagreement is about, in this...

In this case, proof is not a grade, its a method of manufacturing, and it is easy for even a beginner to tell a regular silver eagle from a proof...

In my opinion, it wouldn't be too bad of an idea.
Alot of dates of Walkers have weak strikes as well. And I think its only fair not to give a coin a low grade when all coins of that date/mint lack...
Maybe on the unc eagles, but I beleive the proofs go for more than $19.
Nice finds!!
Yeah, those are like the ones I got.
I was there when I was a kid. I got some medals (copper I think) made on the coin press. I'll try to find one and post it...
Some people pay alot of attention to ebay. Heritage is a good website too. I sometimes use it to figure out what prices certain coins are...
It sounds like what you have is an album. A bit different than the one sided folders, but definitely much better. Like the others said, learning...
