I used to get catalogs for free from most major auctions houses, and yes I always kept them. Catalogs are invaluable source material and an...
It depends on what you want out of the magazine. Most US coin collectors are happiest with Coin World and or Numismatic News. In my opinion, both...
Looks like they just don't have one this time around. They do have a few others though in different locations, and about the same time. That's...
He gave you a fair price for that coin. A problem free VF example would cost almost double that much, a problem free XF example more than double...
Interesting piece, you sure don't see many of them.
Nobody mentioned it because only a few are even aware of it.
There is no average because the prices listed in the Red Book are all over the map. Some are too high, others are too low, and some few may even...

Catalogs from almost all of the better known collections are available for sale on a regular basis. All you have to do is look for them.
I once had a stack of Coin World and one of Numismatic News in my home office - both 7 ft tall. When it got to be too much of a pain to find...
Hmmmm - OK. You're gonna have to explain to me exactly what - do a cover - means :confused:
Let me ask a different question, or two - what difference does it make what the weekly sales are ? And why would anyone care ? I mean really, the...
That kind of depends on how you define "best". Most, if not all, of the coins in the Smithsonian collection have been harshly cleaned, by the...
