I don't think it's as "dramatic" as you suggest. Firstly, the majority of those coins in the first 200 are from a handful of large volume...
I just need to find me a nice 1850 halfpenny to complete the small date-set of these. :) I added the 1852 and 1854 recently -- here's my set so...
I don't think any of the 60 regular issue medals or the 7 occasional medals make reference to Maine. But, if I find one that does I will let you...
A few new pick-ups from this medal series: Special Issue / Occasional Piece #1 1961, Dag Hammarskjold Memorial [IMG] Special Issue / Occasional...
Well, the comment still stands. There has never been a cent minted since the beginning of US coinage with a "P" mint mark.
Lincoln Cents without a mint mark have always been minted in Philly. There has never been a Lincoln Cent minted with a "P" mintmark. The only...
Hi geek, nice write up and a lovely set of coins. But, I have to ask -- does the CAC really add that much to a lot of those coins? I mean, you...

I think DC watched Lord of the Rings one too many times -- his rendition of Liberty kneeling looks like an Elf. I like the eagle atop the fasces...
Yes, those are my photos. Thanks for the compliments. :)
The 1918 has a CAC sticker too, if you must know. :p
Um, not news. Here are my three type coins. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
This is a token with coins pouring from the cornucopia between the date. [IMG]
Strictly speaking, this is a coin with a coin on it. It is an 1814 Brazil 960 Reis over struck on an 1806 Santiago Chile 8 Reales. :D [IMG]
Here's mine. [IMG] :cool::D
Pardon the hugely scuffed holder. And, yes, I tried three different products to buff out the scratches. Sometimes NGC holders are just hopeless...
I don't see any countermark. What you're seeing on the reverse as a "bubble" is just a reflection from the photography. I don't see any hugely...
Yes, so now you can move on to flipping it for or asking in your price $500 more for exactly the same coin. To me, it's all a wash in the end --...
