I usually find that anything that interests me has auction bids that go to the moon. The stuff I don't want just sits. I've thought that perhaps...

Given the hole, at that price, I could live without it. It's neat idea to think that one of Brutus' high ranking supporters might have worn it,...
I have a many of the modern commemorative coins from the '80s, '90's and 2000s. I quit buying most of them circa 2015. I thinking about "thinning...
I remember hearing a "Copperhead" described as the head cut out from a "copper penny" during one the chapters in the award winning Ken Burns...
When I was a dealer, I had other dealer ask me to bid on the coins he had up on eBay. "You won't have to pay for them," he told me. I declined to...
Most all of the pro-southern tokens were made in the by or for "copperheads," northern southern sympathizers. Their message was subtle. For...
There are some dealers who always have high prices, and you know that they are a waste of time. As a retired dealer I respect respect that fact...
This piece is raw with no certification. The next auction is the same way with no certified pieces. Some items would get "no grades" or "details"...
The vast majority of Civil War tokens were struck and issued in 1863. That one appears to be of that vintage. The 1861 pieces are few and far...
I was looking this item which appeared in Davisson's action, which closed yesterday. It is a AR hardi d'argent of Edward the Black Prince who was...

I am not a Canadian specialist, but I'm not a fan of the color. I think that it may have been enhanced. The sharpness grade is there, but the...
I get tired of dealers who judge "the book by its cover." I learned early on that you can't judge anybody that way. At one show, when I was...
I have some rolls of Wheat Cents my grandmother hoarded in the 1960s. I have them mostly to remember her. I have a few rolls of circulated, full...
BU rolls hold about as much interest for me as kitty litter. If I had any, I'd sell them and use the funds to buy something interesting.
Gold is cheap? o_O Let’s hope not. If it is, the money you have be worth nothing, and the overall economy will be busted. Be careful what you wish...
Thanks for getting back to me @expat. I have gotten the same answer elsewhere. The ovals were issued in 1797 (and maybe later until 1804?) and the...
If that coin in that holder makes you happy, that's great, but it's not great if a less experienced collector paid Red Mint State money for it. I...
