My favorite comment, from someone here at CT, was that the design looked like the wrong end of a turkey!
I'm trying to peice together the path of coins from the Mint to an average citizen. I'm still missing a link here: a. The Mint mints them b....
my bank loves me (but it's still no help!) Ahh yes, the sweet touch. I used that, too *before* I ever asked about boxes. I established a good...
Correct me if I'm wrong -- but from reading and learning here, it seems like this is the way it goes with everything new -- whether errors or not....
I have a contact at one bank. She was nice enough to call Brinks, and Brinks told the bank they don't have rolls-by-years. Did she ask the wrong...
Perhaps this is a newbie-type question . . . nevertheless . . . (Presuming readers already know that the mint has stopped production for 2009...
. . . my heart skipped a beat. But just for a second. I had purchased a lot of 53 unique-date average Mercs on ebay for $61. The first one I...

As of 1:30pm yesterday, the melt value of a silver quarter from 1932-64 (I presume these are the same weight & composition) is $2.30 per quarter.
Yeah . . . but I can't reach ebay during the day (blocked from my worksite!) In any event, for this evening: nothing for "2009" under nickels or...
Right . . . that's was part of my point. "Mint wrapped" seems to drastically increase values right now. I did see it. Quite a surprise!...
Oh . . . is that what they mean my watermarked? :whistle:
For whatever it's worth -- I still think that eventually we'll be able to get our hands on rolls for 50 cents. But because I couldn't wait (and...
OK, good, I know that I'm not dreaming this stuff. I have to say -- it looks more prominent in real life than in pictures. I have a few of the...
