Can you (or Doug, or others) elaborate on this intriguing statement?
You could say that (never worth more than face value) about a whole lot of cents (and nickels, and dimes) that have been minted in the last few...
btw... anyone notice that silver lost 10% in value in the past week? just sayin' . . .
I also try to spend dollar coins in every cash transaction I get 1% cash back on credit card purchased, so I charge every single thing I can....
a few thoughts that come to mind (which may or may not be on the mark!) ending time was tough -- folks on the west coast were at work, folks on...
Me too -- well, except for that last sentence ;-) I got into it around age 10 (1967, just missing my opportunity to get silver in change) kinda...
hey, wait a minute . . . ! Weren't the first 2009 nickels and dimes found in PR, too? Or am I remembering wrong?
I think that would probably work -- real keys seems to command a premium. Keep us posted if you do that!
Thanks -- I actually think like I'm starting to understand (about 1% or so) of this market!
Me: I'm guessing at least $100 I shoulda bet you! (Final price $120.27 + $1.50 p) I was basing my guess on that the greysheet bid for G-4 is...

and that's exactly what can happen with some eBay items. A buyer with an eagle eye (and patience, and a bit of luck) can sometimes find some real...
Newbie question: from where does one get current MS coins? (Ignore the "can't find 2009 business strikes" problem). Do you just get new rolls...
My most amazing find was a 1924-d cent. I once started a thread about how I found it and posted pix (short story: for about 25 years I stopped...
Nice analysis Lehigh -- thanks. Genuine question -- from what I've read, I've gotten the following impression -- am I off base? And that...
anyone taking bets on what it'll go for? I'm guessing at least $100
If you're grading accurately, you did great. The 1888 alone is worth that much -- at least. Just getting an 1894 and 1896 together for $35...
The only thing is -- I would think most of these new collectors would try to get the coins from circulation, just like so many of them are...
I agree. I have one UNC P&D for each year (2001-2009) -- but I'm a bit more excited about it with the 2010 design, which (on paper -- I haven't...
