You done GOOD Sylvester !!
With $200 you could buy a handful of Mercury dimes graded MS65 or better by NGC or PCGS. Sure there are dates that cost more than that for each...
THAT is the whole point. They did not check the dates. The mint was quite embarrassed when this news became public ;)
Well Cloudsweeper I'd be inclined to agree with you - as long as WE, the collectors, continue to allow it. But on the day that we all decide to...
Howdy Ivri - Welcome to the Forum !! Your description rings a bell, sounds a bit like a bracteate. Ahhhhhh - here we go - LB26 WORLD...

Do a search on this forum, or any other, for the term "market grading" - (use the quotes). It'll go a long way to explain the points made by Mr....
Somehow I must have missed that post you made a few days ago Gary :( But anyway - when you get to the library, try looking under Denmark ;)
