Well chosen survivor. As a collector of the denomination and six years into the series, so many of these proofs are available far below where they...
The grading firms either have a set of standards that apply or they don't. Meaning, a similar coin, say a 1916s Walking Liberty, would certainly...
I'm the sort that picks them up off the sidewalk rather than step over them.
Put one Peace in my cart and got two at confirmation. At least the several glitches worked to my advantage since the addition will reimburse my...
Outstanding! Encased coins are an interesting side collection.

Thanks yakapoo. I would think at the least a few other years might exist. As you've listed, the journal records, has been my prime source thus far...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH]Before posting this I checked for a category on exonumia so apologies if it's in the wrong place. Anyway, I picked this up after...
I have long held to buying only authenticated coins that are key dates, low mintages or known to be counterfeited in quantity (quite a few because...
