What kind of buyer restrictions, just out of curiosity?
Probably still worth 5 cents. It's just been ground down or something.
Someone should also mention that an "exodus" is a great opportunity for a long-term investor to buy.
To end up with a quarter with no reeding during the minting process, it would have to be broadstruck, as the reeds come from the collar. That's...
Pretty solid. Though, at a budget of $50 (I assume that's per month), one is going to hit a wall pretty quickly in series collecting with key...
Is this really true? I'd love to see some kind of master list. I mean, I know about Vcoins, Forvm, CNG, and a few other venues, but I'm not very...

First offense won't get you a vacation. ;)
Weight is realistic given that it's in a 2x2. It's supposed to weigh 27.2g, but I can believe the 2x2 and staples weigh more than 1.3g, which...
Might I suggest this thread for your amusement, then. :)
He said it's real cooper. I'm convinced. Lol.
It looks like a die clash to me. It happens when the obverse and reverse dies come together without a planchet in between, and some of the design...
September and October in an election year are always interesting for the markets. Ever heard the phrase "October surprise"? :)

Separate names with a comma.
