So that they can be displayed the same as the rest of the coins in the series? Not to imply that a coin collector would have OCD tendencies like...
I don't know whether he's still doing business, or even still alive, but that website won't provide the answer. I found a couple of one-star...
I have email invoices from every one of my eBay purchases. Many sellers include a printed invoice; some I've saved, some I haven't. Every....
About 50 pounds, by my figuring. It would be closer to 55 if they were all silver. I'd find a way to lift the extra 5 pounds if someone offered me...
Has the mint ever sold proof coins without a premium, other than when it dumped unsold ones into circulation? The production and handling of proof...
I make an effort, but this is a hobby, and my hobby is coins, not accounting. I'm sure a fine-grained audit would be super-painful, even though...
That's $15 worth of entertainment, I'd say. Eager to see what you get!
I'm actually hoping to get over there Friday afternoon -- looking to get opinions on some coins a friend inherited. I may go back Saturday,...
Welp, here we are -- an "old gold" coin with a "young enough to be my child" birthdate. ;) :oldman:
That 1914 half is a key date in the series. In that condition it's definitely a $100+ coin.
Huh, never seen one of those before. I thought for a moment that it was like a couple of dime albums I've seen, where they went ahead and added...
Nah, I was just making a joke off the fact that they botched the cover art. And it's interesting to see that they do have dates inside, but not on...
That's a lot! Hey, the two undated "Lincoln Wheat Cents" albums have Lincoln Memorial cents as the cover image. Rare error albums? ;)
Yeah, the tape would've protected the coin from the elements (air, plus sulfur compounds from the album's paper). You can remove the residue by...
Same here (Durham, NC) -- I passed through with my parents in the late 1970s when it was still a tobacco hub, and we toured a cigarette factory....
If you want to be a "low quality" leader, you're going to have to down your game quite a bit. ;)
I love, love, love that they found a commercial tenant willing to move into an historic structure. Around here, everybody wants to knock down a...
Here's how to catch that particular fish: [ATTACH] (Assuming image upload is working today, looks promising.) Look at the other figures -- Most...
To be fair, it doesn't say Barber. Don't judge an individual by the company it keeps. ;) Doesn't Whitman still sell general...
Those would be halves, and that's quite a starter set. (A 1901-S quarter would buy the whole set several times over, though.) That 1908-O looks...
