There's a market in 1924-D cents. No matter what grade you want you can make a few calls and find rolls of what you need. Higher grades, of...
I'm not suggesting 500 '71 mint sets don't exist. I'm suggesting that the guys on TV who sell 1971 mint sets for about $8 each aren't going to...
We're about to find out because there is this much wholesale demand right now. My guess is it will takes weeks and weeks to fulfill this bid....
Then if you make any money on a few of them you have to pay taxes despite having done so poorly overall and lost to opportunity and inflation....
Always in the past the prices of moderns came way down after 3 years. One day this will stop and the prices will go higher instead just as they...
I agree that their proportions will approximate mintages but I'm talking about raw numbers here. There just weren't many '13-S or '15-D nickels...
The BU roll market was a mania. But it went bust because in 1964 the mint announced all coins forevermore would be dated 1964. This was the...
It would be more true if you said the massive profits YOU HEAR ABOUT are for very high priced coins. But the profits there are a pittance...
Indeed, many younger people are sensitive and we were all impressionable. Discouragement of all sorts are common in the hobby and not new but...
As a rule I would strongly advise against collecting any coin as an investment and that applies here as well. There are pitfalls that are...
I think I used to have or might still an '18/'17-D. It wasn't a great example because it falls just below being positively identifiable.
Sure, sounds like a fun a set and cheap. I think you might find some of these coins exceedingly difficult to find restored. Not because of low...
I did have a really nice VF '13-D type II in that first set but it looked out of place to me.
Very nice. There's a lot of meat on those bones. I put together a set mostly from circulation and much later another set from stock but both had...
You may well be right but it could have happened at almost any point as long as 40 years ago. It could have happened then and it could happen...
Remarkable! I believe the rest of that will come off in olive oil.
Eventually people will figure out that nice attractive looking moderns are really tough and they've been misled by three generations of dealers...
No, it doesn't really make sense but you can buy modern sets (especially '86 proof sets) and disassemble them at significant profit. Buyers know...
This is largely chance, no doubt, but despite high mintages the coins are elusive even in high end Fine condition because they weren't set aside...
I can't tell what condition these are in. What I have trouble finding are the 20's dates of all the silvers. The 6P'sare only slightly easier...
