Modern keys aren't like Morgan keys. They are more like Morgans than other classic US coins but they are different. All modern key dates of...
It's simply too early to know. There's a huge inflow of coin to the FED. When this turns around and these are released it remains to be seen if...
It's the obvious answer but the wrong conclusion. Most of these rolls are generated by the big wholesalers who buy huge quantities of sets...
The problem with the older nickels is that there were many millions of each date saved out when they were issued. Then over the years there were...
Of course you're right. It doesn't matter much what causes the demand just the total. This is especially true in the short term. In the long...
That's really kind of my point. Moderns have to achieve their prices with almost no demand. Much of the demand that does exist isn't even what...
I've seen offers of $15 for AU '83-P quarters. I'm pretty sure the advertiser wanted solid AU and better and would have refused just a bunch of...
Krause does especially poorly on moderns and often very dramatically undervalues them. There many moderns that bring many many multiples of the...
The hubs were getting pretty old in 1968 and had lost a great deal of detail so these coins usually have a somewhat "mushy" appearance which looks...
I was hoping you meant the quarter. There appears to be an unreported RMM on the '84-D quarter. The cent appears to be machine doubling.
I agree. There are tens of millions of people collecting clad quarters from pocket change and there's a very small jump from collecting these...
World mint sets are often a great deal. People didn't save many of the coins minted between 1945 and 2000 but the mints made BU sets of coins....
I'm a big fan of modern Indian coins and hope this thread does nothing to discourage anyone from posting them. I've got a very gemmy '54 proof...
Just delete b & c and change it to; the coins go to many counting houses at the behest and under the control of the regional FED branches....
You guys have it basically right but the FED branches do very little in handling coins now days. This job is contracted out to the counting...
I concur. Almost all 1983 to date proofs are DCAM and '82 to date are superb. I think they might have peaked back in the '80's but every coin...
Some areas of the country are doing better than others. Places like MT ID and eastern Washington might actually need additional coin and could...
Well, the thickness of a clad dime is more variable than an old silver dime. Weight is determined by the thickness (and compo- sition) of the...
This date appears to be well represented in FED storage. If they get melted it's a great date but until they do it's best to consider this...
You have half of a regular 1980 mint set. The other half has an envelope with blue stripes and the six Philly mint coins for 1980.
