Today's phrase: false economy. Those flips "pouch out", and if you put multiple coins in one, they will end up sliding past one another. If a...
I think I see some pull-away at the date, but I can't be sure from these photos. I'd expect to see more elsewhere on the coin.
Well, maybe a smaller coin with a more reasonable premium will have better sales results. Or maybe they're just tripling down. I'm imagining a...
Not if you're an imaginary rich teenager.
That's a nice one for a roll find, but that "gunk" might be corrosion. Step 1: soak it in distilled water and see if any of the gunk dissolves....
To be honest, I'd really hope that scratches and rim dings like this would be considered "normal wear" at this state. If not, it would solidify my...
Genuine Not Gradable, reverse scratches and rim damage. :rolleyes:
You mean as in "1899-CC", which also would be a nonexistent date? But one of the jigsaw-piece photos clearly showed a "7 9 9" date. For this one,...
I'm pretty sure it would be worth somewhere in the vicinity of [...]2[...]. Could you tell us about how much a car is worth based on a picture of...
Ah. I was skipping ahead straight to "flip the stuff and build up a collecting bankroll that way".
And bragging. Don't forget bragging. Or trolling.
No, I think that's a die crack. Cracks and clashes are quite common on nickel three-cent (III) pieces. Nickel three-cent pieces are NOT common in...
I can't quite tell what you're trying to say here. Silver Ikes were issued from 1971 through 1976, but they were also issued in clad each year....
I agree with that. I interpreted your response as saying that he should be shopping for good coins in the usual way instead of continuing to save...
I think I would've liked it a lot better as five one-ounce issues with one horse each.
I couldn't disagree more. 1) "The hunt" has its own charms. Some of us prefer "hunting" circulation finds; others prefer hunting for the perfect...
That's a good idea. If it's getting away from you, consider buying a nicer fancy note or coin with a not-so-nice or fancy one you bought earlier.
So when you say "larger denominations" do you mean $500 or $1000, or just "fancy" $50 and $100? Do you see actual larger-size notes from the early...
Well, there are a bunch of badlands out there that nobody wants. It's easy to imagine inflation carrying prices of everything in general to...
Just wait until the Dept. of the Interior starts cranking up the Yellowstone Caldera to spew a few hundred cubic miles of lava and ash. Helicopter...
Separate names with a comma.
