You have to be careful breaking up sets to fill albums. Some more recent US Mint sets (2005 through 2010) have coins with a "satin finish". If you...
I have been a serious collector for 70 years and it seems that I can learn something new every time I open the site. Thanks to everyone.
Too many sites do the "new and improved" thing. They are usually new, but rarely are they improved.
Thank you Kurt, I stand corrected to a degree. I should lump bullion and commemorative coins in with the Pres and Sac dollars. And, I too would...
These new coins should be called tokens because they will not be minted for circulation. Virtually all the coins minted in the last decade are...
I have a complete set of dollars, half dollars, dimes and nickels from 1900 to a couple of years ago. The mint has made it impossible for me to...
I've tried selling my surplus coins and stamps on eBay with very little luck. We have 13 grandkids and 17 great grandkids. Guess what they are...

Back in the 50's there was a grocery store on almost every corner. I new most all of the owners. When I got out of school I would stop at each...
When was that integrated circuit created? I was Project Quality Manager on a TRW team that produced a working Integrated Circuit in the mid...
Thanks Kurt. When I started I could get Twenty Cent pieces, Liberty Nickels, all Morgan coins, etc. in change. Therefore, I grew up with a...
I don't think that is an option when you must pay a premium for the coins. When you put them in circulation you only get face value. Is there...
And there are people like me. I don't like myths either. But, rather than 'exploding' one I try to work out of it with some civility. The myth you...
I guess I should apologize for not following 'your' standard. I thought this was a coin talk board where everyone's thoughts had some merit. I...
I really do agree Rassi. They look more like trade tokens or bus tokens. I am 75 years old and have been collecting for 70 years. I think it is...
