I also would love to unload a bunch of the old Canadian nickel nickels but I'm getting full value for them someday. No one wanted them at $27 /Lb...
Don't blow a gasket. It's just a little hyperbole. The last time I did the math the Canadian dollar was at 80c and gas was at $3. Under the...
These things are like an albatross; you can't even give them away. You can't ship them to Canada because of the costs. Even when someone is...
There are a lot of variables but a good rule of thumb is you will pay more at a show. The difference is usually nominal and there are more...
In gem it's worth no more than a few dollars. These are common even in high grade because they were generally very well made and because tens of...
The bicentennial quarter isn't cheap because there's little demand, it's cheap because it is distressingly common. Ikes aren't common except for...
Thanks. Maybe one of these days I'll try putting together some sets and see how they sell.
Does anyone think nice attractive XF/ AU war nickels will ever get much of a premium? These aren't real common in mixtures. They list for a...
That's remarkable quality on these two; especially the '70-D. It's probably the result of breaking up a mint set but I've seen quite a few real...
Have you actually seen any BU bags of Ikes issued by the FED in the last quarter of a century?
You're right. They've all been panned. Even my favorite, the buffalo nickel, was largely scorned initially. The early designs were especially...
I started a world silver type collection 1800 to date more than 30 years ago. There are a lot more of these than you might think and most are...
To each his own and it's very easy to understand why many people don't care much for clad copins or any modern circulating coins. While their...
I don't think either is the case. If the FED had melted any we should know about it so it's most unlikely any cu/ ni were melted other than a...
Stewart; It's simply astounding howe overlooked the Ikes have always been. Oh sure they got lots of attention when they first came out and...
Any coin at all can be a sleeper and for practical purposes the term "sleeper" is just a coin that might experience large increases in demand. Of...
It could be a rare variety and would be quite valuable as such. There are more likely possibilities though. There are still unknown varieties...
That sounds cheap. The last I looked these wholesale at $18. It was a low mintage mint set and few rolls were saved. A lot of the few...
I think one of the most overlooked coins of the age is the '82-P quarter in near gem or better. No, not necessarily what gets slabbed as MS-64 and...
Yes!!!! And this is why many moderns have increased hundreds fold; they are rare. They have very low demand because most of the hobby...
