While it was my uncle Stan that first had me intrigued with coins with the collection that he had, which he bestowed on me at a young age, it was...
We haven't seen @spirityoda in some time.
I think in my 38 years of collecting, I’ve bounced around in all three categories. One period that stands out to me is my first marriage. She...
I hunt a small variety of places. Online, I only peruse and am registered in HA and GC. That’s enough for me to look at to “scratch the itch”...

Like others have mentioned, I too keep a running spreadsheet of my inventory that includes the purchase price, vendor, and date procured. What I...

Strong strike? That thing is absolutely HAMMERED!! What a magnificent piece. I love this coin! Thanks for sharing your Tatanka’s.
The 3 cent nickel is still an empty slot in my registry type set. Every time I look for one, I'm torn between business strike and proof. It's...
Well struck, nice and clean Buffalo! I’ll go 66.
