Is Priority Flat Rate Small Box still the best bet for stuff like this? I seem to remember you can stuff quite a few pounds of coins into one of...
Barber halves in anything over VF are steep, even for common dates. That 1902-P would be a $200 coin in XF, and if this one can be conserved...
Wow, that is one nice AU Barber half! Might well be worth sending to Skip at ICG for conservation. Even in a dry environment, most paper very...
I see that a similar box just sold on eBay for $325! https://www.ebay.com/itm/147280422268
Yep, and those are excellent photos, easily clear enough to show that... it's the common type, not the valuable one....
Examine the 1942 dimes carefully, especially if any of them have a D mint mark (near the rim just to the right of ONE on the reverse). There's a...

Now you've gone and jinxed it!
Looking forward to the photos when you succeed!
"We have altered the policy. Pray we do not alter it further."...
But eBay's been requiring sellers to post actual photos of the actual coin* for YEARS, and now they're even requiring sellers to pick a grade for...
Yeah, I was thinking to sell off a good bit at our big June show if spot held over $100. It didn't, but I was thinking I still might go through...
That's within the expected range, as I understand it. The gold purity decreased into the 1860s and 1870s. What kind of test did you do? Many...
Yep, there's one now! :)
I remember normals. Sometimes I miss them.
I don't think that looks like metal moved on the coin. Remember, that legend is incuse. Weak strike, maybe - @franklinresearch, can you post a...
I'm not really an error guy, but since that's a detail missing from an incuse feature, I'm guessing it's a small die chip. The parts of the die...
