It's an interesting topic to me because I've been pondering this for a few years regarding the Barber coins in the 1899-1905 era: which was the...
Have any of the 230 1794 dollar “commemoratives” from a year ago resold? They mostly went for around $35k. This is the same shtick.
Interesting read. I'm curious as to how "master die doubling" can be considered to exist at all after the mint changed to CNC milling of a master...
Holy crap, I got suckered again. I still haven't gotten the hang of it as far as checking the post dates. @johnmilton how about a warning label?
One submission, one thread is my preference. Otherwise your threads would get jumbled up with others and rearranged depending on last response,...
Obviously my "thought experiment" was faulty. I duplicated your spreadsheet and came up with the same result. Average 1.5151515152 quarters...
Understood, and this is where I struggle. On the low end, 66% of 25% of the transactions you get more dimes than quarters (one or two dimes and 0...

I have two identical piggy banks. I put quarters in one and the other denominations in the other. They both fill up at about the same rate. This...
I especially liked the part where he preemptively set the "rules of engagement" to exclude anyone recommending that he submit the coin for an...
Apparently they had not yet come up with the concept of a "table of contents" so that was the title.
"Miscellaneous Views of the Coins Struck By English Princes in France, COUNTERFEIT STERLINGS, COINS struck by the East India Company, Those in the...
I should know better than to reply to someone in the "what's it worth" who just shows a picture of a coin and nothing else to go on. Oops.
What do you think it is?
I asked a simple question. Of course RPMs and RPDs exist. You also have to know when something is possible to exist. If you think your coin is a...
I used "all my available assets" to know that the complete date was put on the master die starting with the cents in 1909, and by the mid 1980s...
