And you will waste a lot of money in the process, paying $35-50 to certify a coin that is worth one cent, and which wouldn't even straight-grade...
Oh- and please don't post two threads about the same coin. I had to merge them.
No. Spend it.
Doesn’t seem strange to me. Those were the exact reasons I bought it. Plus, that angel on the reverse is nice. It looks better in hand. My pix...
True ‘nuf.
Click here and wait for the excruciatingly slow page load on CollectiveCoin. (It can take several moments, but be patient- it should show up......
LOL. Asking that question on this forum is like... [IMG] BTW, I use the same excuse. I entomb mine just to be consistent with the rest of my...
Ah, good to hear. That was my reasoning for offering a wide selection. :) Can’t swear there’ll be anything “of numismatic merit” in those Wheat...

Is now live on the Contests forum. Random drawing in early- to mid-January, 2021.
If anyone is lamenting their missed chance, Giveaway #51 is now launched (on the Contests forum), and includes many of the same coins. Plus some...
It isn't. Nickel is magnetic. Copper isn't, but it is the reason US "nickel" coins (which are actually 75% copper) don't stick to a magnet....
I’d say the worst case scenario is XF details (because you never know what’ll happen when the TPGs pick the grades by throwing darts), but yeah,...
Heck, even ANACS or ICG. Get that puppy in a straight-graded holder from a recognized TPG, and you're sitting pretty. Even if it didn't end up...
