Be very careful, they are COMPLETELY different things. You are comparing mintages of a government COIN versus mintages of a private "art bar"...
Enrico, i can definitely see why you may think merovingian or vandalic, as they had similar monogram types in the period. However, based upon a...
The 50d took off in the 60's roll craze. It basically has been at the same price today as it was 50 years ago. Maybe a business strike S mint...
I thought he meant any US coins since about 1946 or so. :)
That is the most English person I have ever seen in my life. For clarity, I am half English, so I did not mean that disparagingly. :)
Fair enough. I would basicaly expect to see, if this happens, shortages of coins, jewelry, and "other uses" to be the ones not being...

All a part of being an intelligent buyer in my eyes. Being patient, intelligent, and not getting emotionally involved until its in your happy...
I see nothing on the "appalachian" nickel that said it had to be AT. Unusual? Yeah, but not unheard of. The price? Yeah, to me THAT is what is...
