Fascinating and incredible. I always experience some ambiguity when I see machines taking over once human functions, especially artistic ones....
Hm. MS-65. Hmm. I guess not too many other examples exist to compare it to. :D
That is a work of art. Thank you for posting. I can't say that I've seen such a recent cent take such a beating. Wow...
You are doing exactly the right thing. There is nothing at all trifling about your questions. I should add that, for me, monetary value is the...
Millions to billions of the newer small types exist, so people probably won't have much trouble obtaining what they want of that type. So my...
Most of the modern coin offerings from many mints around the world today have contrived scarcity written all over them. Who can blame them? It...

Yes, double confirming. My 2016 has the 84 million as well. Hm. Nice catch. Someone apparently missed that tiny 600 million or so...
Hardly anyone knows and the people I do tell never seem to care. The few times in my life it has come up in conservation resulted in the fastest...
Apparently, some people thought that the lowered surfaces (often called "incuse") on the US $2.5 and $5.00 Indian gold pieces could harbor...
