Yes, that's what I am afraid of. The fields appear to have been rubbed with an eraser or something. The base grade would be AU-50 without the...
For me, as a collector for more than 60 years, it still is. They are the only modern American coins that I buy these days. The rest of the stuff...
The last I knew it as on the second page of this U.S. coin section.
Years ago they slabbed some really nice coins. I once sold a very nice 1848-C Quarter Eagle in Mint State to one of the major dealers many years...
The aftermath Midway through 1964 mint director, Eva Adams, announced that Proof set production would be suspended in 1965. The reason...
[ATTACH] 1957 – 1,247,952 sets issued In prior years the number of Proof sets that the mint sold had been limited “to capacity.” This led...
